I should be able to make it there. As of now I have nothing going on. Most likely if I come I'll bring the girlfriend's Civic.

Hey, i just got back home from a drive in the FD to mt. pleasant.
i forgot how tempermental rebuilds are, but i got it to 16inches of mercury (vaccuum) and it idled (once warm) at 500 ish. im going to bump up the idle, and adjust a few things, but at least its running! 20 miles down, several hundreds more to go.

I don't know if it's for sale still or what but off of 61 going through muscatine there is a very nice clean fd sitting it had 10k for sale on the back window. aftermarket wheels and exhaust it is very well worth the price imo.

it's in an apartment complex and it sits next to a evo.

A drop and some wider wheels would make it look better.

Well, looks like I won't be able to make it. I talked to my dad yesterday and he said that his side of the family is getting together in Clinton for Memorial Day and asked if the girlfriend and I were attending. Kinda sucks, but it's not like I really have anything nice to bring (Civic).

I agree it would, although with the **** roads everywhere I am afraid of breaking the sideskirts or front bumper. It has Eibach Pros on it in the pic. Stiffened it right up, even though all the shocks/struts are blown up.
