OK, here's the first few pics . Yes, all the limbs and stuff in the yard is cleanup from the hurricane - our street is pretty much one-way right now due to all the branches and stuff piled in front of everyone's house!

And, yes, it's still got dead love bugs on the front of it from the drive home. Nowhere NEAR as bad as the Lexus from the trip! Hopefully I'll get a chance to wash it tonight!

Bonus points for spotting the dog .

To those who havent seen it in person this is a great example of an unmolested fd. Truly beautiful.

That car went to a good home.

Yeah, the owner mentioned there was someone else looking at the car - I guess that was you!

I actually found quite a few good clean FD's out there - there was a REAL nice black '93 base in Illinois that I was also looking at - hit up Autotrader.

Anyhow, thanks for all the good words, everybody! I'm really looking forward to getting some time to get my hands dirty with the car and make it as perfect as possible!

Dale

Hey, that's my FD in IL! She's still up for sale.

Glad you found a nice car Dale. Hope my car goes to someone like you who'll treat her right!

Looks like you got your power and phone back from the latest hurricane. Was good talking with ya.

I just love the beauty of the car juxtaposed against all the debris from Ivan.

I saw my first FD in Greece back in 1993. It was love at first sight!
It took me 5 years before I got mine..EXACTLY like the one I had first seen.
It's a great feeling taking it home and enjoying it.
Congratulations on your find.
