1986 GLH Turbo. Some recent pics. Purchased vehicle in March and am slowing plugging away at her. I have the pizzas which I will be polishing up this winter, but the pumpers do look good on her I think. I have to replace the rear hatch struts, passenger side mirror and find a rear wiper arm. Headliner also needs replacement. Paint is decent and is 80% original. No rust on door panels or hatch. Car has 95,000 kms now (59,000 miles). I hope to be able to get her painted within the next 2 years.

Recent work:

welded front floor pans and inner fenders
head gasket & reconditioned head
power steering pump
new rack and pinion
new rear brakes
chrysler cd player
4 wire O2 sensor
stock boost guage from a shadow (to be installed)

That's a nice looking GLH. Those pumpers look good on a silver GLH.

none-the-less.

Thank you for sharing it with us.

never put the ventvisors on, but the drip rails were shaved so, it needs something to keep the water out of my windows when they are slightly open.

Here's something you don't see very often, I just thought I'd go to the website and do some browsing to see if there was anything interesting for sale. Lo and behold look what I came up with! Cars.com: 1982 Dodge Omni

I'd put the pics up here myself of it if I knew how to paste them to my reply so everyone could see it. I guess I'm too stupid to do something that is so simple to many of you. So how about it, can somebody throw the pics of that 2.2 right up here for all to see?

Hey Brad,
Here's the pictures. (If I'm smart enough, they should work)
I guess it didn't work, but at least the link is more direct. Also all 3 images are full sized right away.

SHELBYMAN: beautiful GLHT! the silver is the best color on the GLHT. you can tell this one has been taken care of, even the hood insulation pad is still in one piece. once you add those pizzas you car is going to really pop. what tires are going on the pizzas? Goodyear is now re-making the original tire for the 85/86 GLHT (Eagle GT H-rated in the correct 195-50 size). Those tires would really top off this great car.

more pix of the interior and engine?
