Got me an FB (pics!)

So, I finally did what I've been trying to do for like half my life. Bought an fb.

'81, canary yellow. Brand new paint. No engine or interior.
NO RUST OF ANY KIND, ANYWHERE. NEW CONDITION.
Yeah.
w00t

I've allready got a tII. It'll be fast in a straight line.

This is going to be fast around corners too...

Great looking FB! With the lack of engine, that's room for pretty much whatever you wanna do with that car, eh?

Not that it really has anything to do with anything, but I noticed you're in canada. My car was purchased brand new in canada back in 1984 by the prvious owner. Don't suppose there are any differences aside from the speedometer being metric between US manufactured and Canadian manufactured cars?

ASFAIK nization, there aren't any significant differences in the Canadian models vs. the US models. I've got a Texas car myself, and I've just gotten used to reading the speedo in MPH instead of KPH.

Why don't you make it fast in a straight line and even faster in corners?

12a Bridgeport
Weber 50mm Carb
Ground Control Suspension<--as much stuff from there as you can afford

Looks like a prime candidate for a 13B Bridgeport with some Giggle Juice.
