Usable Items to take off an FC - what have i missed
My friend has an FC parts car (non turbo think it might be an 88 GX) that they are getting rid of and said i could have any parts i can use off it so here is my list. The engine is no good on it fyi. What have i missed? I have an 85 GSL
Oil Cooler lines, and filter pedestal for the FMOC conversion
Water Pump Housing
Coils with igniters (for the easy DLFIDIS conversion not the complex one haha)
Plan on doing the fusible links conversion using those funny fuses so i dont need the fuse box.
Rad is gone
Brakes and hubs are shot so i cant use for conversion
Is a 13B non T2 trans any better than the 1st gen 12A trans?
Went through the archives and search and couldnt find much else but i know ive missed something. Anything else i should try and get off this car??
Thanks

FB+FC=F-ME
Tranny isnt really worth it.
If its a GXL or other 5 lug car,you can grab the front brakes and 4 piston calipers to adapt to the 1st gen with the correct kit.Even if the rotors are shot,the aluminum calipers are nice units,and easily rebuilt.
The FC seats are nice, if they arent trashed.
88-up cars had a good looking 3 spoke steering wheel thats a direct swap.
Not much else that you havent mentioned.The FC was a totally new car,so little is directly swapped with the 1st gens.
