Hello all
Posted: Thu Dec 04, 2014 2:49 pm
New to this forum. Not (relatively) new to FBs. Have owned 3 so far. My current is a (mostly) rust-free white '83 GSL with a low miles 12a/tranny out of an '85. Bought the car in '09 as a rolling shell with a blown motor, ruined radiator, relatively no interior, and the most ruined wiring harness I have ever come across. For the most part, it has sat in various pieces in my garage as my dreams and plans for it have expanded and contracted. Amongst my other projects, I'm hoping to finish getting it up-and-running to start using it as a budget rallycrosser next spring.
As of now it sits with:
Stripped interior, HVAC, heater core
Cleaning/updating/stripping the wiring harness (work in progress... still)
Aluminum radiator, FC oil cooler, e-fan in fabricated aluminum v-mount shroud
Stripped emissions
Stripped '70s Nikki (bought it off a REPU back in '11)
RacingBeat streetable headers with a headers-back exhaust I hacked together from recycled exhaust pieces I got for free
Carter fuel pump with Holley fuel pressure regulator
FC direct fire ignition
Headlight motors removed
I can post pictures, etc if people want later. I don't know if I have many good ones of the car to be honest though, mostly they're just close-ups documenting the various things I've done with the car.
