20v roll call

Im taking a break from studying for finals so i jumped on here. Just curious, who has a 20v and where are they located? so I figured i would start a thread about it. maybe its not the first, maybe not the last, but here it is! perhaps we could include year, 20v model, running status, location?

1985 hardtop
silvertop
in middle of swap
Tulsa OK

Mine is an 86 blacktop.

These are old pics:

The afm disappeared long ago, and the silvertop was replaced with a blacktop last month.
