man.. that thing is gunna be freaking sweet. Just wish i was still in NC to see it in person. :)

You wish you were still here in J-ville? haha, yeah right.

Once I get this new engine in and running, she'll be the fastest '7 in town. Since there's only like 5 of us anyway, and none of the FD's run. I still can't believe I sold my TII last year!

OH MAN!! you sold it?? that thing was a beauty... yeah, i do wish i was out there. there are ZERO real tracks on Okinawa.. A couple hours from J-vill you got VIR, Road Atlanta, Lowes, man.. i want some real track time.

car looks great man.

Well I don't have the TII engine in yet.

I took the car on her maiden voyage anyway. I had to replace the water pump, but after that I drove all the way to Raleigh for an NC Rotaries meet. I made it round trip 290 miles on one tank of gas!! That's with the 600cfm Edelbrock on the 12A.

That makes me want to get a FB/SA.... STOP DISTRACTING ME!

WHY are you selling her??? somebody buy this.

i saw your ad on craigslist

I love my widebody, this was a good find, good luck with the tII swap.

I picked up mine for 900, in real bad shape.. spent a year on it and still having issues.. but it is the org. S3 13b 6 port w under 70k miles.


OH AND WAIT A FUCKING SEC! I HAD TO EDIT THIS!!! YOU GOT BLOUNT COUNTY TAGS ON THAT BITCH!!! WTF!! Ive lived there my whole life, had 7's for the past 5 yrs and HAD never seen another wide body... so please tell me you didn't get it from here..id be jealous that i didn't already have it..

That just struck me as funny :rofl:

Smoke crack much?

Hah, no... I'm in the Marine Corps, I live in Jacksonville NC, but Maryville is my home town and I keep my cars registered there. Did you used to have a black TII?


I suppose I'll update this thread while I'm here.... I swapped in a GSL rearend and installed stainless steel braided brake hoses, that is all.

how much longer are you going to be in JVille

Looks great... How about a pic of what you put back into the interior?

A while I guess, at least 3 or 4 more years.

What makes you think I put anything back in there? Just the TII seats, the craptastic dash and console, and a shiny new shifter boot from Rick. It's still mostly stripped out. I'm concentrating on the mechanicals first, and yes I think I just made up that word.

No, 'concentrating' is not a new word.

I think it is amazing work you are doing - and even more amazing that the frame/rockers were not rotted.

No No Black TII for me, ive had a red vert,black vert and 3 red fb's and now my gsl-se wide body.

if it wasnt you then there is someone out there trying to scam people using your car photos

I'm gonna sell this car now if anyone is interested. I'm tired of wrenching on shit, I don't have the time or motivation to finish this project.

Looking forward to meeting you tomorrow. This car will continue to get justice.
