Looks like a solid build. I'll probably end up with a Jackson supercharger at some point. It will be cool to see the car at future meets.

0351USMC's 86

Of course I'm going to subscribe to my (well soon to be 0351USMC's) FRS build thread!

He doesn't know it, but there is a clause in the buyers agreement I have to approve ALL future mods going forward 😁

Never really thought about that before but it is cool that you can stalk your old car. Especially in circumstances like yours where you aren't getting rid of it just due to boredom or dislike.

I love the FRS platform. It's a great car. Easy to work on, lots of potential, and just a fun car to drive overall.

Yes, it's noises, doesn't have leather, heated seats, etc... But I didn't buy the car for all that.

I'm going to hold this all over my baby daughter when she gets older... LOL! You made me sell my Jenny! LOL jkjk 😁

I still have yet to see a single deer since then. Which is characteristically odd for here. They must know i'm uppercutting or drop kicking the next one i see.

Awesome glad you got a second twin. I met @*LongFella and I have seen your car! He seems like a good guy and definitely takes car of his car.

I bought the Perrin exhaust that was on the vehicle. He wanted to sell me the whole car!

You will have to make it out to a Vallejo meet sometime and give me a ride. I wanted to ride / drive the car but my GF was with me and she would have gotten out of my car and just walked away if I drove off in a supercharged car haha. I already made her get up at 7 to drive 2 hours to get the exhaust. Then made her move her seat forward so I could fit the Perrin box in the trunk.
