Thoughts on this FV (new to the FV world)
Okay guys I have been dying to get into FV's since I first saw one years ago, I'm finally ready to bite the bullet and get one. I'm a veterinary student on student loans so I am going to be building a Vee on a budget.
I'm potentially picking up this one tomorrow, I wanted to get some thoughts/opinions/observations on this one, as well as anything I need to inspect closely when looking at it.
It was last raced in 1998, last run in 2008, has a 1600cc motor I was told the previous owner was starting to build it into a formula solo but it got put on the backburner and never got finished. He said it's a predator/bushwacker/vista chassis and missing the nose cone, fuel cell, and front shocks. Said the body has a few cracks in it as well and he does have the other matching rear wheel, seat, etc.

quote from the original poster
"I am wanting one to build, play with, and get the feel of driving to help me make the move into the racing world."
