wow that car has a nice dent.

I may be interested in the front fenders, the header panel, and headlight covers if they are free of dents and rust and the price is right.

I was thinking of swapping over the fenders but i want to look closely at the gray fenders because i think the only problem with them is one of the mounting tabs is bent up and i think i can fix that so i may not have to swap the burgundy ones.

I'll let you know about the other parts and can get some pictures if i decide i don't need them.

BTW am i right the only way to tell if it for sure has LSD and not just a disc conversion is to open up the diff?

It looks to be a GSL car because it has cruse, P/W. to convert the car to disk they would have had to change out the whole rear because the housings are different. the way to find out if it has LSD is jack the rear up and turn the wheels, if they both go the same way then then it has a LSD, if they go opposite directions then it is open.

Thanks man. I kinda thought it was the GSL. i'm still fairly new to the FB though. i've only owned one since January. The gray one is a GSL as well.

If you know someone who would want the rear axle then it'll probably be for sale when the time comes.
