::sigh:: Anyone wanna buy one of my fc's ? I want a convertible now...

One is a white 87 fc 5-speed 2+2 with 209k miles (original engine) still pulls great, compression is a little low, but ok. (can't remember the compression numbers off hand) has a turbo II suspension with 16" chrome custom wheels and new tires. Also has a really incredible e-fan that I'ms sure Tofuball can vouch for. The car is in good shape. Only has one issue and thats if you drive it too hard for too long it gets above the halfway mark on the temp gauge. I think it's just the waterpump tho. (gonna try that if nobody wants it as-is) $1500 firm.

The other is a red 88 FC with 140k miles. Not running right now. Has the 4 piston calipers, 5-bolt wheels, bologna cutter style, spoiler, and glass sunroof (stuck open). Two seater with gray interior. (interior is in good shape, but dirty) I think it just needs a new fuel pump. I squirted some fuel in the intake to test the engine and it started right up and ran for about 2 seconds and shut off. Ran really smooth too. I plan to do a compression test on it. Looking for $700 obo on that one.

Lemme know if any of you have questions or whatever. I can get more pics if needed.

Well... per Jason's suggestion I figured I'd tell everyone that I'm getting involved in sanctioned shifter karting with an aim at progressing to prefessional open-wheeled racing, specifically IRL, CART, GP2, F1, or A1-GP. This saturday I'm heading up to Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course to meet up with some race teams from the Woodbridge Kart Club.

As for my FD with the MegaSquirt, here's the current status: Progress on my Megasquirt FD project

hahah cingular has the worst customer service EVER... Not to mention when you have cingular you thing it's great... but people trying to call you hate it! "We're sorry all networks are busy, please try your call again later." Dated a girl with cingular, almost caused us to break up cuz I could never get through to her. Switch to verizon like the cool people

i have to disagree with BOTH of you. Verizon lies just to get more money out of their customers. sure their service might be ok, but when their customer service sucks, they drop calls in the middle of busy areas where even t-mobile works, and they won't provide useful service to my apartment, i don't bother considering them. they had us locked into 4 years of service because we upgraded both of our phones(when they said that the service wouldn't be extended or changed in anyway...we would just switch from one phone to the next). NEVER AGAIN.

i've liked Cingular/ATT's service recently, i was just frustrated because i was making a call from work and had limited time to talk to them. they've been very helpful when i've talked to a person. from now on i'm just asking for a customer rep right away instead of figuring out the phone tree.

I think I'm actually going to be leaving for Ohio this evening after work. I'll be working with a few of the pit crews for the Dunlop Tire Road Racing Series which is whats going on there. The track, Mid-Ohio, is also used by ALMS. If anyone is interested, I'll post pics. Otherwise, talk to you guys when I get back.
