The store is Skycraft Surplus right at I4 and Fairbanks Ave in Winter Park. Rice would love the place. they have three walls of resisters, capacitors, transistors, and other misc stuff. They get surplus from lots of local manufacturers, including the military and marine industry.

Paypal gift works for me. settinsails@gmail.com

Just put in the desc what youre wanting, and if you want to add 10.00 per 100.00 to more than cover the Fl sales tax.

I live in Greensboro, NC, but will either run up 95 to hwy 74 to 220 home, or if enough Charlotte folks buy in, come up 77 to 85. Not sure when I'll be coming home, so there will need to be some flexibility.

Al,

What are you looking to buy? If its small enough, I could probably get ground shipping pretty inexpensively.

If you do need to drop off in Charlotte during normal business hours, My work place can handle cargo for a while if needed.
I am on Morehead St., not far from Pinkie's.

There's down on horsepower and then there is WAY down on HP. Unless you plan a V8 swap would suggest sticking with '93+

Thinking it would be a ground-up clean up with a swap.

 

[NCFJ]

I agree with Rice. If you are not planning a swap you should look toward the 1FZ rather than the 3FE. You'll have more power and better parts support.

Also keep in mind that any 80 you buy will more likely than not require base lining to the cost of $1-3K regardless. They all need something. Tis one already has somewhat common issues, leaky sun roof and poorly operating windows. Both pretty much require more time to repair than money, there are a couple good write ups on taking down the window motors and getting everything back to normal working order.

Is this place legit? I see a lot of stuff from them.

 

[jamesurq]

That's not far from where I work. Don't know anything about them and I can't find any reviews. That said, there's a lot of Buy Here Pay Here type dealers in Greensboro They're probably doing weekly financing at 15%, and repossessing cars over and over.

That said, none of that matters if you're a cash buyer - it might mean a good discount if you show up with a stack of money.

I have an FJ40 ConFer rear bench seat for sale. It came installed in my 40. I'm not a fan so I installed the rear jump seats and now this needs to go. It has seat belts, arm rests, and the back rest folds down. You can pull up the bottom cushion for storage. I'll throw in the Felpro oil pan gasket for free. This has to be one of the early models of this bench seat and shows normal wear for its age.

$150 or make an offer.
