Finally got an FD...this one came from the ocean!

Well my name is Mike Zusin and I own Track.One motorsports out of Franklin, TN. I won't elaborate further on that until I register as a sponsor later on.

But I just recently acquired a 93 FD rx-7 shell for the nice price of $750. I have always wanted one and I couldn't pass up the deal. I bought it from a friend who had bought it as a part's car for his FD project. It has ccw's, a LS6 swap, etc. I bought it stripped for the most part.

It was also..this car...

Needless to say the car has a interesting back story lol.

I'm about to make my build thread on the car here in a bit to share the rest of the story and my plans Here is how the car looks right now at my shop.

Welcome Mike, you got your work cut out for you...doesn't look like it's going to be a problem for you-especially since you own a shop. Now hurry and get that "sponsor" registry so we can check out your shop! Are you going with the same color? Or do you have something "special" in mind...LOL

Holy Cow! I just read the other thread you linked to. That is some tainted past!
Good luck with the build and here's to the luck of the car changing with your ownership!
Keep us informed with the build thread. No detail is too small.
