Just wanted to introduce myself here, I picked up my 86 base a few months ago, its defenitely a project car. It runs good, but it needs a paint job and lots of other stuff. Some of you may know me from Team FC3S, I've been a member there for about a year now.

Anyway, heres some pics of my car, I don't know why my maroon looks like that in bright sunlight... weird.

Its staying N/A for sure, it'll probably be a daily driver for a while. Someday I want a TurboII but that won't be until I get this the way I want it. More than likely I'll try to get some true duals for the exhaust, get a minor streetport one the apex seals go out, maybe beef up brakes/suspension soon. I want to put in rear seats too. Maybe I'll get one of those nice erebuni kits someday, I dont know. I don't like planning too far in advance

Almost forgot, those wheels are gone as soon as I sell some other ones (you an barely see them in the interior pic) that I bought not knowing the bolt pattern, and of course they dont fit. Also my radio setup just isnt doing it for me (see pic) so thats getting replaced someday.

YOu should get a breather for the air pump, you don't want to be sucking in dirty air.

Heh heh, yeah, the headlight lid is bent like that, and since the bumper's pushed in it wont go down any farther. I figured I'd get some use out of it so I took the weatherstripping off. Seems to work alright
