      I saw it listed on CL and was going to take a look at it on my way home tomorrow.

      Good for you, I am glad that you got it, when do I get to see it? Tomorrow?

        I'm not 100% at driving manual so I can't drive it yet.... dad will be the one to drive it for now.... it's a silver with the red hockey stripe... it is only an L so it is nothing fancy. Bob, come stop by if your in the area! it has the rear defroster as one of the only options besides the radio

          If it has a hockey stripe, I believe it's an L-Plus. They didn't get unique L-Plus badging until '90.
