New Project Car

Hello,
Im pretty new here and to the FC.
I got a FC shell. The only things on it was doors, back glass, dash, ALOT of wires that I dont know what or where they go or do, and a few loose parts that I dont know what the hell it is. I did my home work on the FC its self, but I dont know how to get started. I know that I want to get it moving first before I work on the body. Also I wanted to know if theres a site that shows me where everything goes, and what screws go where or if some people could PM me or email so I can send pics and hopfully make this work.

I know, why dont you go to the shop and let them help you. Well me and a friend really want to build it our selfs.

Thanks,
Taka

Thanks ill check that out. It has no suspension, Wheels, or Engine. Which bring up another guestion.
Im going to buy a 87 Turbo II engine from some one, but he says it ran when they took it out but it leeks water. Is this a serious problem that need to rebuild the motor? or just fix some hose? He is selling it to me for $50.

What do you guys think?

Thanks,
Taka
