Hello everyone,
I have decided to sell my FB. This would be a perfect project for someone.
I am going travelling for a while and I need to downsize my garage.
Here is some info on the car:
1984
Still has MOT but I will need to double check the exact date.
mint interiour (I will upload some pics later today)
The body has 90.000. Properly undersealed. No rust underneath at all.
It is very clean. The only spot that lets it down is some tiny bubbles on the roof.
She handles very well. Everything is standard suspension and body wise.
Originally I bought this car from Ireland with a pinto engine.
So far I have put a low mileage 12a in there but it needs finishing. I have all the parts for it and many more.
2 gearboxes, 2 carbs, starter motor etc.
I was going to finish it myself but as I have 2 other rotaries and work in London during the week I just don't have the time.
I will be very sad to see her go but ideally she needs a new home and driven back on the road again.
Here is some pictures for now but I will update this later today//

Thanks,

Price ? So she is not currently running ? Current mot etc.
Not running at the moment unfortunately. Everything needs to be bolted on. Carb, Distributor, starter motor, manifold, header, cooling pipes etc.
Wiring is all there.
I bought the engine from a full member on here as a running, low milage one. I have many spares as well.
Here is a recent picture/

Price wise I am looking for offers really around £1500.
Thank you,
Gabor
Looks a lovely condition car and nice little project for someone....an fb is defo on my list just timing not right for me. Somebody on here will have no doubt atall!
Thank you. It is in great condition for a 31 year old car for sure and well looked after. I wish I could finish it and drive it but timing isn't the best for me either and I would prefer to see her back on the road as these cars don't like to stand for too long in the UK weather.
I will double check the MOT as well as soon as I get home.
Thanks,
Gabor
She really is beautiful. Shame that you have to let her go. But hopefully she gets good new home
Thank you. That's what I'm hoping for. :) a nice new home.

The car is sold to a very nice guy on MRC. Will be sad to see her go but hopefully he will make a build thread on here. :)
Thanks for all the interests,
Gabor
And that guy is...........ME! ;D ;D ;D
Cant wait to collect. Lots of pics and questions to come.
Thanks Gabor!
Well done Karl :)
Pleased to see you will keep posting on here about your FB. They are great cars to drive, considering they are 30+ years old.

:) Just noticed your location is Poole! I was born in Poole and am down there once a month or so to visit my elderly mum in Oakdale. Might see if we can meet up and I can drool over your FB? (I'll clean up afterwards ;))
Yes mate no worries.....Maybe you'll have some input on how to put it back together ;D ;D
