I'd like to hear your thoughts on the quality of the work, when you get a chance to go over it. It is interesting to get someones thoughts on the "DSPO's" modifications.

I always wonder what the next guy to work on my 7 will think.

Not to mention, "How the hell did he fit that chin-up bar in here?!?"

Yeah I happen to know the car is absolutely MINT! Been under it on a hoist quite a few times...

It also has Rear Toe Eliminators, not sure if you were aware of that. And there is (or was) a cone filter hidden under what appears to be the factory airbox, but is actually just the top. Not sure if this is still the case.

I know the boost was up to around 10-12psi or something; the car moves VERY well.

I think you'll be very happy with that car. I've never seen an FC as clean as Chris' former car.

Its Arrived!!

Here's some pics....
driving it home last night was a symbiotic experience, love the bov - its loud as hell - she'll probably need a rebuild at the end of the season - it IS the original engine from '87 so... there was quite a bit of good 'ol backfiring (lord i missed the backfiring) but she ran out like a little top

That car is in nice shape. Have fun with it.

I'm not a fan of the headlights though.

yeah, the headlights aren't too hot, im kinda still on the fence...
they need to be aimed BAD though, the left low beam lights up the on coming lane, although its very helpful around tight left hand corners in the dark....good luck with the rights though - LOL

If you paint the black portion of the headlight surround red I think it will look alot better.

You think its loud now? We put a quieter muffler on it not to long ago... probably a few days before you came to look at it. It was much louder before. :p
