  1. Did you ever call Blast From The Past for the initial inspection and PA VIN? Neither of my two PA titled Birkin's needed these items to pass the safety inspection
  2. Any details on this one http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=13143&d=1503170038
  3. Sites like that (and 100's-1,000's of others) grab information off forums such as this, cars.com, ebay, etc and repackage them as their own "inventory", do not send your information to them through their "contact a seller" forms.
  4. Croc, Like the latest format with the labeling of the cars/links. A lot of hard work and dedication goes into your post, and I for one thank you. Bill S.
  5. Perhaps, but Classic Motor/Auto Carriage also sold a 7'esc kit
  6. Fiberfab International to Classic Motor Carriage/CMC to Auto Resolutions to Street Beasts, finally dying in 2010, with the molds and jigs being sold off on Ebay in bits and pieces, circa 2010-2012. 10's of millions of dollars were fleeced by unsuspecting customers.......... Bill S
  7. Fantastic shots, keep them coming. Bill S
  8. I wanted shots of the supercharger set up, that is all ' As for the MK IV (the best of them all), the 3 link is the way to go, I've retrofitted them in to 6 of my early FFR's that were built without them. Makes the car superbly predictable at track speeds as well as on the street. Koni's are the best shocks FFR has ever offered............200hp is enough to kill you, so best to respect the car before you ever turn the key for the first start, as the car is like nothing you have ever driven in your life, and the learning curve while not long, can be dangerous. Just some friendly advice from the retired body shop owner (and racer) who has repaired enough of them from owners who "knew what they were doing". Bill S
  9. Any pictures of the Birkin engine compartment, I requested several from the seller (way before it was on BAT as well as on BAT) but never received any. Also, nice FPSB , is it a MK I, II, II.5, III, III.1, or a new MK IV (I've built "just a few")? What drivetrain, suspension you went with? Bill S.
  10. Stumbled across this one by accident this AM https://miami.craigslist.org/mdc/cto/6087338165.html
  11. My point exactly, I spend more time writing and taking pictures to sell a sub $5,000 stock Miata
  12. truth be told, I keep staring at that Birkin in Dallas, just wish there were more pictures so I could get my brain in gear to get excited enough to ask further questions
  13. A 7esq Citroen :ack: http://bringatrailer.com/listing/1974-citroen-ami/
  14. Are your plans to make this street legal for your little burb of DC? Bill S.
  15. Start here https://icsw.nhtsa.gov/cars/rules/import/
  16. And here I always thought they were here http://www.usa7s.net Bill S
  17. Seller states that he took the pictures just yesterday and that the supercharger is in the nose cap/cone area. When asked for additional pictures, seller states his phone broke. Nobody else at the shop/dealership has a working smart phone or camera :willy_nilly:
  18. It's not supercharged now either [img=http://www.usa7s.net/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=11973&stc=1]
  19. We'll get you through the process, take a deep breath, a step back, and start making the calls I suggested in my email(s). Bill S
  20. Already titled, it's easy as crossing your T's and dotting your I's, regardless of how the title reads. Not yet titled and still on MSO, again, it's as simple as calling (609-292-6500 extension number 5064) the special titles division, and asking for the "kit car" package. Follow what is in the package to the letter, and besides the coin flip as to which inspector does the initial "safety inspection" (I liked Morristown for this as they were kit car friendly, but after Hurricane Sandy, it was permanently shut down after getting 11 feet of water flowing through it). Asbury Park is hit and miss, there is one inspector that hates his job, and thus makes your life as miserable as his. Have not had anybody complain about Westfield or Winslow, but that does not mean one is easier than the other, as it all falls to how good or bad a day each inspector is having. Where people run in to problems is not having the paperwork in order, or tries to reinvent the wheel (so to speak) by trying to title the car as a "historic vehicle" with a 50's, 60's, or 70's year filled out in the paperwork. The Special Titles Division is not full of stupid people, and they will reject your falsified paperwork and maybe even subject you to a NJ State Trooper hands on inspection, in search of stolen parts for your attempted deception. Bottom line, get through the safety inspection first by following the letter of the law and everything as spelled out in the "kit car package" Hope you find this helpful as well. Bill S
  21. This one is posted to the Superformance owners group http://superformance.org/forsale/SV102416KH.html Besides the questionable hood scoop, I'm thinking this may be a good deal for someone. Bill S
  22. Well, it was an all original, under 20K original mile, 1972 Mustang convertible, so that might have had something to do with it.
  23. I recommend: https://www.schumachercargo.com/ Last trip for a vintage Mustang to the UK (roll on/roll off) was four years ago, price dropped off at the docks in Newark, NJ was $2,100, delivered to the buyers door just north of Yorkshire Bill S
