It's a pity you're so far away, I have set of complete 1/4's of a 32k mile '86 that are perfect!!! As for finding parts, there are still some out there, you just need to know where to look or who to ask. I'm gonna write something about this in the coming weeks.
We will declare the LR wheel and tyre to be slightly intoxicated and banned for the rest of the hour.

I wish a lot of you guys were closer. Chalk you live near the other pond in fact, that's way out of my realm, maybe one day I will make a voyage out there though I have a cousin that lives in cali. I did go to Massachusetts last weekend and scored and Absolutely MINT hatch w/ bi-plane spoiler, and leather wheel. theyve been in storage since the mid 80's so theyyre near perfect except that the hatch is 2A color and it mustve been from an 84 cause the wings are black, no big deal thats easy stuff, Important thing is everything is in much better shape then my stuff. Im still going to have Bob recover my steering wheel, but this wheel I have looks like its never been used. This guy I bought that stuff from has a whole bunch of stuff including two front halved SVO's that were wrecked an 85 Shell that burned and a GT turbo shell sitting in his place, plus an 80 Cobra turbo thats close to mint with 73K on it. I know some stuff is still out there, thats acutually some of the fun of restoring this is finding all these rare things.Originally Posted by Chalky
Mike I agree, lets ban those punks!
That's a relatively easy fix....

By the way, where in Mass did you pick up the parts?

Did you get her license plate? She must not like gray SVOs.IMG00023.jpg
Ouch! Must be a grey SVO thing!
Must be. Bought it with this gift. I hope to have it fixed by summer if I ever get a chance to haul it to Portland.
Whats in Portland?
Pretty awesome shop owned by a really guy with a cool SaleenId offer my father in laws shop in Medford but we cant compete with Scott when it comes to fox bodies.
A close relative with a small shop who offerred to help me out as long as I do most of the work with his guidance. I figured besides wanting to own another SVO, the other reason I bought this car was so I can do most of the work myself and learn along the way.
Thats cool, I would like to learn how to do certain things too, but Im not going to experiment with the SVO
