Re: reconstructed 86 5000CD turbo

I think you can probably find one with no accidents for about the same 
price if you look around for while. The 85' 5000s non-turbo FWD that I used 
to own, I bought it when it was 5 years old and had 58,000 miles on it. I 
paid just under $5500 for it and it was in excellent condition.
