Talk about lucky lmao pics when I get it.

This is the lemons car I picked up Saturday.
Sadly the motor is locked, however it does have the crazy hard to find 3 piece wing on it and many other awesome parts I can use!
I also found this bad boy for only $150

Update:
I have finishes installing all the brand new steering parts and reinstalled the strut tubes to get the car rollable. I also did get the car to fire for a few seconds! I have yet to plumb in the new carburetor so I can only start it on starting fluid.
As for the interior I wasn't happy with the huge hole around the shifter so I made a rotor shaped trim ring and mounted it to the center console. Still need to buy new bolts and mount the rear en up. Pics soon

This winter thing can go anytime now! I want to work on my car pretty badly, but it's sitting out in the snow sadly.
Here is my newly acquired t2 brake caliper brackets.
I also got my parts from mazdatrix. New bearings, lower FC hard lines, and new caliper pins
Before it got cold and snowy out I finished pulling the cage out of the lemans car
And since I'm at it here is my rx7 hot wheels sickness lol
Now all I need is pads, rotors, and braided brake lines to get the front end to roll/stop. Then I will have to start on the rear!

Well I picked up yet another fb! It's an 83 gs tornado silver metallic with the original 3 piece wing, targa band, and louvers. The interior is black and in ok condition. I picked the car up with 86k miles for $500. I will post pics when it warms up a bit
