Welcome to the club. I myself have acquired an FC turbo for free. My problem was that it was a little light in the front end... stolen motor and trans. The good thing is that my s5 swap shoudl be arriving tomorrow. So I hope to be test driving by this weekend.

Someone wanted it more than the previous owner, so they stole it and stripped everything out of it. He couldn't stand the insurance company scrapping the car so he bought it back from them after they totalled it. and he basically let it sit in his backyard for a year or so until he got around to putting it back together. I guess his wife got tired of looking at it, and made him run an add on craiglist for a free shell, and the multitude of spare parts in his garage. That's where I came in. and I've had it for a month. And its killing me that I can't drive it yet. Then again my swap arrived yesterday and should be installed this weekend.
