93 fd tt

Hey guys, up in ct I previously owned a 86 fc with a 1/4 Bridgeport, then after needing a rebuild I did a street port. I just purchased my first fd today And I love it! Thing is pretty much stock which is what attracted me! Just looking to keep it looking classy and beautiful. Keep you guys updated!

Fd in CT

I live in middletown! I'm currently doing a ton of work to the engine compartment - emmissions removal, idler pulley, block off plates, downpipe w/o resonator, cold air intake, battery relocation. But I'm leaving the exterior stock besides the tein coil overs. I love the stock look.

That could have been quite terrible.

OT for a second, did you go to 7's day in NYC? I thought I saw this car there from a video that was blasted yesterday?

Well then at least you had confirmation that the car ran

Hopefully it all works out!

Did you purchase the car with the turbo chipped or did you find out afterwards?

This thing is a beauty! I'm in Southern MA, currently prepping for an FD (my dream car) purchase. I'm curious, how much did you pay for yours and where did you find it? Thx - Jon

Sounds like things all fell into place. You at least got the most important thing covered! "She's fast as hell!"
