I'm right with you on the V8 FC. I got my '87 Sport for free as it was missing it's engine, a few interior parts and a tie rod end. I also had to track down the last registered owner as my buddy that gave me the car didn't get the title from the mutual friend that gave him the car, but it all worked out. The missing interior stuff wasn't a problem for me as my car is going to be a gutted track toy. I scored a Turbo II diff, axles and driveshaft for $100 from a wrecking yard I frequent. I've built my own motor mounts, taken up all the sound deadening, thrown out 90% of the wiring, put on KYB AGX dampers and RS-R race springs, got some 17" wheels and tires, yet there is still a ton of stuff to do. I need to get the cylinder heads to my machinist so I can determine the pushrod length and finish up the engine. I need a custom clutch disc to mate the Supra Turbo tranny to the 318 and a custom driveshaft to mate the tranny to the rear end. And on and on...
