Quick phone vid by my son in an 88 Turbocoupe we picked up as yet another project. Clutch slips, no boost on the gauge but the brakes worked great.. lol
New flywheel and clutch put it back on the road. New rear tires, a header panel/bumper and rear taillights, mirrors and a few other things cleaned it up on the outside. Fixed the A/C, put a tripminder in it and have been hammering it around town and still getting 21mpg.
It is a fun car just like the old 86 I used to have.
Now that everything's fixed are you going to post another video? :) I'd love to see this car back in action. I used to have an '88 TC. I really miss it!
Thanks - Looks like the hose had broke just inside the firewall and nobody bothered to fix it, just disconnected it. Pulled a little slack and hooked it back up - all is well now.
Ha.. yeah, just what I need huh? Actually it is a Highway Patrol, the local cop lives the other direction, lol. There are good AND bad sides to having them living in the neighborhood. Ha.

Yes, I need to shoot an updated video of the car. It's running but not very presentable. MUCH better than it was though.
