new FD owner

Just picked it up last week. 93, 2nd owner, 40k miles, all stock except for fan mod. Still has original brake pads. Owner was hyper meticulous. Drove it from Menomonee Falls Wisconsin down to San Antonio, TX. About 2000 miles, drove like a champ. Previous owner is sort of a family friend so I know it's all good. Oil changed every 1000 miles, he had all the records to prove it. I've had a 1980 GS and two 91 verts, always wanted a turbo II but this car came available and I'm really enjoying it. Only mods will be a downpipe and reliability mods like cooling and maybe some water/oil temp gauges. I'm interested in making the original engine last as long as possible

welcome.

i know a few people that got lots of mileage on the original motor. maintenance and proper usage are all it takes.

I paid 12,500. So far I am thrilled. I plan on just taking really good care of it.
