SC I just can't

Find an FC anywhere near me =[

My first car when i turned 16 was a 500 dollar beat to hell FB, and it was my baby. Then a tourist ruined that. I got a 240 for a while, and it's fun, but it's not rotary lol. So i was looking into finding an FC cause i've always wanted one. However, apparently the only FC's in the southeast of the country are convertible.

I've been searching anywhere and everywhere for a good two months trying to find a non-vert FC, and i'm just getting nothing.

Any ideas?

I wouldn't sell my fc. No way. I'm sure most of the people that have them now feel the same way.

Craigslist. I'm sure some idiot scored one with bad rotors... Only to find out that the issue wasn't the brakes.

I drove 7 hours away to get mine. (reside in Delaware. Drove to west Virginia.) It was worth it in the end for a car that was cheap and in excellent condition compared to anything in my area.

If you can't stand to have a vert, I can't help you. OTOH, if you could endure going topless, I can offer a 20B to ease your pain. It's in North Carolina. If that's too far, I can deliver.
