Wanted: 85-87 V6 Computer Reply #5 – September 11, 2007, 02:00:59 PM I have an '88 3.8 computer, and the original '84, and I know the issues with each. Hence the reason I need an '85-87 3.8 computer. Doesn't matter which one of those three years, as long as it is in working fashion. Quote Selected

Wanted: 85-87 V6 Computer Reply #8 – September 11, 2007, 02:33:58 PM Anything > 84. There is a slight hesitation with the '84 that has a good chance of being computer related, so I just need another computer to try out. I don't trust '84 computers. So...if someone has an '87 computer, cool...otherwise I'll be happy to just get a working one, no biggie. Quote Selected
