Mshafe: great wheels, and that's from a guy who's a nut for stock.

What body kit brand is that? From all kits I have seen that one seems to be the best sooting for the fB. Your car is looking very nice.
Thanks,
Gary.

Yes, it survives... Me and a couple of friends that can repair almost anything on this cars. All the parts that we need we get them from yunk yards and from Racing Beat, Mazdatrix and other shops in the U.S.

12A Bridgeport, racing clutch and RB pressure plate, 3.90 LSD, MSD Ignitions, Autometer gauges, accel wires, RB headers, 45mm DCOE (Going to upgrade to 48 IDA), pierce manifolds DCOE manifold, rear discs from 1983 GSL and lot more stuff.

He is out on vac and should be back in a few days. He did a test spray (new gun) with no prep work just to see the color and use the gun.
