Look at that little gem. I wonder where that was hiding. I would have bought that in two seconds. When you are ready for more power Gary at C&G still does the full closed deck deals on those motors. That motor at 20 psi was one of the funnest I have ever driven. 

Great info thank you!!  Could only imagine how fun it would be at 20psi

Was this the one the guy was selling for his uncle on FB Marketplace ?  I believe he was in Havasu ?  If so I almost pulled the trigger on it. Congrats on the new ride. 

Thats a great question. Dont know if it made to FB market place but @Grease Monkey will have that info as he bought it and I got it off him the same day , I do know it came from AZ

That looks like a super fun car to dune!  Congratulations !!

Thank you!!  Ive only been able to take it on a couple rides but it is an absolute blast!

Well after many years of being allowed to drive and living through my knee grow @Grease Monkey and all his Funco's, the dream became a reality.  In the Funco family

This is the brother to his current car that just got the re-do other than power plant and trans.  We believe the car was originally built with a v8 per build sheet from funco

Its a J35 turbo (low boost) with a 2d.  Dont have a lot of experience with the Honda but am excited to learn so you Honda guys can be sure ill be full of questions..  @Kraut_n_Rice

These Honda's have some long legs and the car handles amazing.

There will be a short list of upgrades. Full prep, whole new radio kit as the current looks to be from 1980 (Roadmaster?) full air system and controls, possibly update the dash.

Will be keeping it in its stock form for the most part. 

Just be cleaning it up and making slight touches to personalize it.  Huge shout out to @Grease Monkey for taking the time to hunt down this car.

Cant wait til next season but am pumped to get familiarized with it.

Nice!!  Now come grab all this shiat and keep that employed

I do have one left over from @Grease Monkey build.  Has a little dent on the bezel on the right hand side, even has the Funco chrome pod.  Let me know if you're interested

It means waking up at 3am .....searching offer up for atc 70 parts and Harley golf carts...........It means searching Craigslist in Oregon and CA for a 16Valve VW Scirocco...............It means calling someone you have never met 3000 miles away to grab a vintage Honda for you while being late on your morgage and paypaling him over a grand to someone you have never met but know him from gd,com!!!!!

AWESOME friends and relationships forged along the way with like minded peeps trying to live the 1983 life again!!!!

PRICELESS!!!!

 

Being so addicted that you are so strung out to remember there's a stock pile of ATC 70 parts and bikes 10min from your home that you haven't payed the mortgage on

The Rameys seasoning is great!  Throw some mustard and some orange juice, perfecto!!
