Example:
07/92 - 06/93 build date FD is a 93 in the US
07/93 - 06/94 build date FD is a 94 in the US
07/94 - 06/95 build date FD is a 95 in the US
So this car is, according to the US, a 96 car. I'd be curious to know what your insurance card says the year of the car is???
Banzai.com - FD Build Date VIN Breakdown
According to Banzai's site your car (400,387) would be #387 made in 1995 by the production number. They went to 500,000 that year.

In the American market there's the general assumption (don't ask me why) that the automotive year starts in July and ends the next June.
Example:
07/92 - 06/93 build date FD is a 93 in the US
07/93 - 06/94 build date FD is a 94 in the US
07/94 - 06/95 build date FD is a 95 in the US

took my dad down to a cars and coffee meet. Probably the last time the **** will be on the road this year. I saw my first ever FD on the road today! And what do you know, he was going to the meet also haha.
man my hood insulation looks like ****...time to open the wallet and PM Fritz I suppose /sigh
also some pics of my favorite rides that were there
two Jag E types...schwing
yeah I'll take everything in this row
wouldn't be complete without a delorean..there were 2 here but this one had the flux capacitor!
last but not least, 5.7l LS turbo Miata...WHAT? that looks dangerous

Subed....because I have almost the same exact philosophy on my build (build thread coming soon).
That Delorean is funny because there is one that occasionally shows up to our Pittsburgh Cars and Coffee, who also has a hoverboard he puts in the passenger seat just like that one.

Bag and tag. Rebuild time!
I found some slight rust under the battery tray
this is how it sits right now. I'm pretty much taking everything apart so I can do a deep clean on all the areas I can while I have the chance.
so far my plan is to buy a jdm long block w/trans so I can stay on the road while my engine gets built how I want it once and for all. I'd like to get Howard Coleman to do the build with one of his port jobs if possible. I still need to talk to him about it, but I prefer not to until I have cash in hand.
More progress soon..

As for the harbor freight lift....I used a coupon and got mine for $100. Works awesome! Best $100 investment I made as I'm sure you feel that way too!
I'm interested to see the damage when you disassemble the motor.

Partsplosion!
had to call it quits for the night. I hope to have it cracked open by this weekend. I'm excited to see whats inside.. It felt pretty smooth when I cranked over the main pulley with my breaker bar. I got little poofs of air as I spun it around, that seems like a good sign.
