Talking Finally got my FC TII!!! (Pics inside)






FINALLY BROUGHT HER HOME!!! I'll take some decent pics when there is some light

I'm soooo happy and pumped up right now I took a bus up to Ann Arbor, Michigan, and it took me 7 hours to get there... and then took me another 4 hours to get back. Totally worth it though!!! I love this car sooo much I bought it from Hakan. The car has a lot of mods done to it and dynoed 285rwhp@10psi I will be modifying suspension and get some new rims. Oh, another cool thing is this car has only 53k original miles! I gotta give her a good bath and will take some nice pics when it's bright outside.

I know him because, even before he bought the car, he would call me repeatedly and ask hours worth of detailed technical questions about modifying 7's, building engines, fuel systems, etc. Then, I never heard from him again, regarding any actual work or business. And, i saw him trying to sell that car for months, and wondered what his deal really was. With a name like Hakan Uras (I think that's it) how can you forget?

They go for more than that sometimes too. Depending on location, of course.

I would say that is a great deal. It appears you are not buying somebody elses problems. You are buying a car that has been tuned at good shop.

Smart way to get into the TII side. Way to go man. Enjoy her!

Was that dyno on the stock intercooler?
