Welcome to the list!

You can find them if you are willing to travel. There is a really nice one available in CA, see the posting. Search all the local Craig's lists, including in Idaho, they come available regularly.

Consider that these great little cars are getting quite old, so even one in good shape will need a fair amount maintenance. As gasket, seals, hoses and other parts age they will start to fail more frequently. If you can do your own maintenance than these will be great little economical 4x4 cars to own, but if you can not fix it your self it can eat you up in both minor and major repairs.

I have a blue '86 that I am fixing up to sell, I am about 4 hours drive from you. It is not quit ready to sell, but the interior is like new, the body fair (some peeling paint on the roof), and mechanically it will be in perfect running order once I am done with it. PM me if you are interested.
