Hang in there! I waited for years before I found my T2! Had to drive to Houston to pick it up.....surprise to find it only had 53K orig miles on a 20 year old car. Keep looking around, before you know it someone will call.

I found my FC recently as well. Cost me $165 and it runs, just needs exhaust gaskets.

$45 for an ignitor
$20 Fix an intercooler pipe
$100 for a new upper IC pipe
$Free to swap the fuel lines around because the idiot put the Fuel feed line to the return on the regulator.

I got lucky finding the kid unemployed and needing a car to look for a job. So I jumped on the deal when he offered it up.
