Haha, I remember Cliff. I used to live out at Courthouse Bay.

By the way, who all has a running '7 right now?

As long as your car is older then 96 and doesn't need OBDII testing then you'll be good, I usually paid him like $60. He usually just checks lights and horn.

Hey guys, I'm back again! Thank God for finishing deployments. Picked up the FD recently and doing some basic get-up maintenance. She's working pretty well, only thing is I HATE POLLEN! F*ing pollen. I'm getting out of the Corps in about a month so I'll be leaving all you fine gentlemen before too long, just thought I'd say hola before I left. I'll be hanging around Midway Park a bit this weekend and during the week, you can tell me from the MB FD with the big for sale sign written on the back window.

oh, duh, yea its for a FD, not sure which exhaust it is to be honest, just know its 3" and got a decent sound if you like that sort of thing. Was trying to sell the car and since that dosn't seem like its going to happen with this economy I figured I would get it back where I like it and start driving it again. If your interested your more than welcome to come look at it, i live in richlands.

And is a 4" tip with 3" pipe. Car is lowered so I will do the best I can to get a pic of the underside in the morning, later.

Any of you guys have stock wheels for an FC. I'm running my 88 GXL at the autox at New River in May and I just realized that the wheels I have on will take me out of E stock class.
