Yes, apparently it now is! Your car has been giving out free rides to anyone in the area!

What? Just because she's a FD doesn't mean she's a classy lady Jason.

and today i was able to reduce it to a few more manageable pieces

I left the center section the seats bolt to so i can fab some seat mounts, and make a 2 seater bench using stock TII seats.

I also realized the trunk section would be a good template to play with some enclosure designs for the trunk without worry of spilling fiberglass or having to climb around inside my hatch.

I suggested we use it as a planter outside the garage but my GF vetoed that one

(Yes i know we destroyed an FC! But, you look at the rust on the bottom of the pieces in the scrap heap- you will see this car was too far gone to eve be safe on the road.)

How many extra T2 seats do you have Eric? I may be interested in a bottom piece in any color as I mainly just need the metal skeleton piece.

I dont need the seat brackets, I need the drivers side lower seat FRAME, like underneath the padding that your *** presses against while you sit - and it needs to be T2.

Yeah I'll be there. Most likely wont be in either 7 as FB still has yet to be tore down and fixed and FC blower motor isnt working so no heat - and thats not cool lol. Of course, it needs the 2 heater core hoses hooked back up as they were bypassed by the previous owner.....
