    Default 86 4E Coupe Back on the Road

    After sitting in the garage for a few years my 86 4E coupe is back on the road. Started with the fuel pump giving up while thankfully in the garage. Pushed it to the side while I worked on other projects. Finally changed the pump along with a few other little items. Then chased some electrical gremlins which turned out to be corrosion in the plug of the ECM relay.

    It's now going to take up daily driver status to give the truck a break. It's been off the road for about 2.5 years so it's nice to get it out for some exercise.Name:  IMG_9007.JPG

    Nice update!

    Is that the same color as the Hertz SVO cars?

    Hertz cars actually came in all colors. But yes my Hertz SVO is one of the 4E / Sage Green cars as well.

    Nice looking coupe Ken. I bet that is real fun to drive and it may take a while to go back to the truck!

    Thanks everybody. Funny going from my F-250 to the coupe. I feel like I'm sitting on the ground when I'm getting in or out of the car. It's worth it even if these old bones creak a little these days.
