Let's cut to the chase....

If it is a '79, it should/might have a removable battery box, with a removable cover under that lid in the trunk.

Is the removable cover there?

Greg, IIRC '79 had the battery box integral with the unibody, only the '78 MY had the removable box with lid attached to the torque tube. At least all my '78 and '79 cars are configured this way.

Howdy, I saw this ad

https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sf...232387799.html

on CL right now and remembered the old thread I started. I searched for "Gaviota" to find it, and instead found this thread. It's referenced here, so I'll paste that link for context too:

https://rennlist.com/forums/928-foru...a-barbara.html

Since it's a 5 speed, the most salient question from that thread is if it has an LSD.
