Anyone recognize this FD?

Just bought this car at an auction here in Texas. Carfax shows that it lived in Florida most it's life. Anyone recognize it?

$4300... It still needs a little work though. It was missing the gauge cluster and intercooler when I bought it. Bought it to resell, but starting to like it an awful lot!

I've now installed a Turbo Street Fighter FMIC and down to finding some gauges. Car has been repainted, but they did a nice job. It looks awesome from 10ft and you have to get pretty close to see blemishes. Seems to run good, although I haven't pulled it out of the garage yet. Hoping to today. Maybe it'll drive right....

It is molded on. Definitely not how I would do one, but hard to choose when you buy at auction.

Here's a pic. Headlights are out as they were pretty rough looking and I ordered some new ones. Hood closes well, it's just up in this pic.
