What would be your ideal FB? Stock and mod'ed?

If you could have any FB (or SA) what would it be?

For me, the ideal stock would be an 85SE with RHD in Misty Blue.

Ideal mod'ed FB would be 83GS, black interior, RHD, Beige, 13B, Camden blower, SE rearend.

Stock would be either an SE in tornado silver metallic or an 82 GSL in tornado silver. Modded would be any series first gen with a big turbo 20B and all the goodies

Next best would be my AutoX/DD 85 GS with a streetported 12A with a modded nikki and open exhaust...

1979 with sunroof, 20BPPT, Dogbox and Ford 9". Full suspension and braking mods, widebody with "racing paint job".

I don't care if you think a 20bPPT is streetable or not. It will be fun anyways

Stock? 1979, Black on black and sunroof.




I hope SA's qualify. I love them more than FB's..

Hrm. . .

I wouldn't mind having a FB with a nice street ported n/a 20b. If it had the group b wide body kit I would be very very happy.

I have it both ways. A stock 83 GSL, white with tan leather, and a "lightly" modded 83 GS, red with red cloth (pictured in my avatar). It has engine, suspension, wheels, exhaust, and a GSL rear diff, just to name a few. I use the red one for daily driving and autox/track days. The white one sees very little action. By far, the red one is my favorite. It was also my 1st rotary. They'll prolly just bury me in it.........
