    not for the faint off heart (or anybody with sense). i wonder what his reserve is, and how hard is it to find some of the parts that come with it.

    Damn I love that one ! It should go for a fairly decent price due to the engine , trans , and all the new parts that goes with it . There are 3 things I see , one that's really great and 2 things that is really very wrong . The good in the Fe cross ram intake . They are very hard to find and sought after by Fe lovers ! The really bad is the engine set back . That is in the front seat ! :eek: A real g***er can only have a 10% set back from the stock factory mounts locations . That's usually around 10" after the front spark plug . That front end is very old school but not sure if it will p*** inspections today and I didn't see any front brakes on it either . That's a big no no !
    I would like to find some history on the car for sure !
