FB Newbie

Hi everyone, I recently got an 81 fb from a friend. He said: if you can get it running, it's yours. Didn't need much (charging the battery, new fuel pump, figuring out some wiring, power to the coils/ignitors). Now to check the rest to see if it's worth keeping! I used to have an fc many many years ago, and I'm excited to driving this thing. It would take too much to make it a street car, but should be fun having it. Thanks in advance for all the knowledge sharing and letting me pick your brains!

I'd say that is a good friend.

Welcome to the forum!! Thats a really cool FB! Do you know any of the car's history? Do you know who built it or if it was ever raced?

Thanks! Unfortunately I don't know much about it's past or who built it or if it was properly raced. It won't win any beauty contests but it's still a work in progress. I took the intake and header off and it appears to have been ported. Has rear disc brakes and a brake bias adjusted where the hand brake used to be. Looking for a radiator and fan, better seats, redo most if not all the wiring, and then just have fun.
