Ok guys, I just bought an FB to replace my TII, and this thing is amazing! I get waves from everyone now, my TII with a fresh paintjob didn't even get this much attention! Ok it's an 83 GSL with a 13 B swapped in an a racing beat intake manifold, a Webber carburetor, and racing beat header. It also has the GSL-SE brakes, rear end LSD, and transmission. I love it. Will post pics later.

Looks good, get some molding tape and fix that trim along the driver-side maybe?

It's about time you smartened up and got the right car. Congrats. Just give it some paint and she'll be real nice.

It doesn't have the SE wheel pattern, so it likely doesn't have SE brakes. The GSL also had rear disc and LSD.

Non vented (solid) rotors are GSL brakes. The SE uses the same rear pads as an FC.
