Researching the right vintage canyon carver

Hi All,

As the COVID-19 pandemic drags on, I've been social distancing in my garage by completing all the deferred maintenance on my more modern Japanese sports cars.

I've decided to see if I can live with an old rotary for my next project.

I will have an open spot in my garage once my 2008 STI is sold and free social distancing time to wrench on a new project.

Currently looking for an FB with original paint (high miles with patina are fine with me, just looking for the right example) that I can make a dedicated vintage canyon car.

Some of the best driving roads in the country are at my doorstep so this car will not be a garage queen.

Hope to "officially" join the club soon.

Welcome to the forum. Patience is key! I waited almost 3 years before I found the perfect one for me. Hold out and don't settle for one you cant see yourself really enjoying. Also, when looking at them in person, try to stay away from the mickey moused ones, you will save yourself some headaches
