Good luck on the last find, however neither the tramp frame or mast are black anodized which makes me wonder if this is not an 86 but earlier - pre 85 (an assumption from these forums that after 84 the black anodized were somewhat standard). The sails may be 86 but the rest... check the hull serial # viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1155
if not 86 you could get a better price.
