I just picked up a 86 Laser as a project / flipper for my nephew. It seems to be a pretty good car but certainly needs work. Sounds like the drive train is solid. It has some minor mechanical and interior and needs paint. We are going to go thru it and sell it in the summer so he can earn some money towards finishing his first vehicle. He is set to get his license in September.
I don't really know anything about these cars. The only fwd cars I have been around are Toronados and Eldorados.
I certainly remember these from the 80"s and like everybody was around plenty of k cars.
I always thought the Rampage was a good niche and am surprised that that platform has not gained popularity. A friend of mine was all about finding a GLH Omni. Always looking in the autotrader and I didn't understand it. He found one and it was fast.
Which somehow made me like it even less. And that was before it outran my Roadrunner.
Anyhow I'm looking for resources to learn more about these cars. The previous owner gave me a stack of manuals for them so that will be nice.
My inner nerd has always kind of been watching for a dodge caravan panel with the manual trans from this era. So this car is going to fulfill that urge while its here.
If anybody has a tip as to shere I can find a central resource for the 2.2 cars I would appreciate it.
