Saw this on the website Curbside Classics. i had a 1980 GL in 1985. Three speed automatic, no tachometer but I'd guess at highway speeds (I think it was 55 mph max in Conn. back then) the engine must have been close to 3000 rpm. I believe 1980 was a major redesign year.

I caught up with a mechanic who had previously been given the job to resurrect an L Series GTA , by a car yard. A blown intake gasket tricked them all, and their quick fix chemicals. He hated it. It ended up at a wreckers, slowly being stripped of lights and bonnet, until I came along. When I described it as being nimble - he scoffed. Yet , here I read Fuji's sales blurb for an earlier model, being nimble . Nice find.
