My 2nd FC, 1986 Sport With a Bridgeport :)

Well technically 3rd, but 2nd that I currently own. I picked it up today and drove her home no problemo. Has rouhgly 3k On the rebuilt engine with s5 manifold conversion w/ s5 TII secondaries, S5 TII mesh rims with some Nice So2's and other tires i forget but good tread left. Took some pics with my other fc a 88 Gtu with tons of mods. The sport is the lightest fc made having no sunroof and lets let the pics and video of it idling talk.















Thats The body heres the motor









I got 1 vid of start up (stumbles because cold start removed), 1 vid of a 4 second idle, and another of a 8 second idle, they're about 1 megabyte each, can i get a host anyone?

Thanks and all comments and questions welcome

I think its because they sank alot of money or time into a rebuild. Then ran outta money to keep the car and keep modifying it.

That or they just bought a different car.

Cool beans! I see the spolier. Are the rest of the little aero devices intact? Not only is the Sport the lightest with the aero package it's got lower drag too.

From the pics you can see that it doesn't have the front aero bumper lip :/

I was thinking about selling my car after the rebuild just because the car will be worth more with a freshly rebuilt engine. Of course I would only sell it if I had a 3rd gen lined up to buy
