Former '85 GLC owner
My first new car was an '85 GLC Deluxe 4-door 5-speed. I loved that car, and had it 11 years before it finally caught fire. The only problem I ever had with it was that the carburator was always acting up. The car never had a high idle of its own, though I could force it by hitting the gas just as the engine was about to die. Other than that, and that it threw a rod at 93K, it was a real trouper. My kids were born when I'd had the car one year, and so they spent a lot of their childhoods in the back seat. There was more crayon on it than you could imagine.
Over the years, the carb became more and more of a problem, so when it set fire to itself, I figured it was trying to tell me something. My next car was the '86 626, then the '93 MX-3. Now, I'm about to get that elusive 1st-Gen LX. Anyway. The GLC was what got me interested in Mazdas in the first place, and I've become more and more attached as the years have gone by. Dean |
Hey Richard, I would really like to see a picture of your RX-3.
Amd just for fun here is a picture of a 1979 Euro right-hand drive 323: http://students.washington.edu/ruthless/random32379.jpg hehehe :D |
So would that '79 be considered a BC chassis?

My parents still have an '85 4-door delux GLC. It has about 200,000 miles and still putting along.
Anyone know if a BPT or B6T is a direct swap on this car? I ask because the car only weighs about 1900lbs and would be the perfect sleeper. |

no major probs yet. it still passes emissions in VA, but it spits out a little dark cloud at start-up.
my parents have replaced the fuel pump (recently) and have replaced much of the ignition system, but the GLC still has it's origional clutch. |
