Thought I'd make a more up to date thread here. I have heard a few FD owners around the Fort Polk area, but I am interested to know if they are also members of this site.

I drive the MB Fd.

Thanks duggie
But that's actually the car I HAVE been scavenging all of my parts from for a while lol. Got the steering box today. Someone has taken a gear or two from the rear diff since the last time I had been there. An older gentleman I met the other day said there were a few sitting around in Livingston parish years back.

Np i got luck and found 3 verts in there and was able to find 5 good vert rims with center caps for 160 im trying to find a t2 so i can get the rear diff and intercooler piping.

Oaky8

FC verts? That's a surprising number for one yard. I really like that they have a classics section. Wish the BR yard did.

There are a lot more rotary owners around, they just don't care to post or rarely get on the forums.

Me? Negative. Though, up until earlier this year my shop, Gorilla Race Engineering, was under contract with NOLAspeed and was responsible for their dyno tuning and custom fabrication work. But I was never an employee there.
