The basics:
88 FC, I have a florida title in my name.

-Ronin 8.8 kit with explorer rear end, 3.55 gears, truetrack diff. 
-Fortune Auto 510 coilovers with 700/350 springs. Have 750/400 for smoother tracks.
-Custom speedway style front sway bar.
-Depowered/welded 15.5 steering rack with saturn vue electric power steering.
-NEW delrin front LCA bushings. (the poly in the car were trashed after just a few events, see photos of the camber change at last track event)
-Custom brake caliper bracket to run wilwood calipers and 13x1.25 front brake rotors and 12.88x.081 rear rotors.
-Wilwood manual brake pedal assembly with dual masters

-lights, wipers, turn signals are all wired.  Popup headlight assemblies are not currently installed for weight savings but included.

-Kirkey intermediate road race seat.  I am 5'9, 210, 34" waist and fit the car nicely.  If any taller head room might be an issue or a drop floor piece would need to be installed.
-New windshield
-Crank up windows are still in the doors, clear the rollcage, and make the cabin weather tight like factory.
-Custom removable front splitter assembly.  Allows loading the car not need special long ramps.
-Custom wing uprights for kognition wing.
-Fenders rolled and pulled to try and get 245 hoosier to fit on a 17x9.  Unfortunately they do not fit on the front.

Spares:
Aluminum hood
front bumper
left front fender
pop up headlight assemblies, complete.
stock door side mirrors
front spindles and hubs
brake rotors
rear subframe and control arms
brake pads

15 gal fuel cell parts, cell out of date but lets you go back to a flat floor in the rear.
I have the double a arm front suspension in a box still that can go with the car if the buyer wants.  Converted back to strut to avoid nasa rule penalty.

Last track weekend was April 2023 at Sebring.

If the buyer doesn't take it I'd be interested in exploring that double a-arm front suspension. I'm a longtime admirer of it and it's been on my list to develop something

I will keep you in mind if that happens.  Only thing is you'd have to develop the top coilover mount and upper control arm mounts on your own.  Mine are still welded in the car.  You can see what I did in the current photos I just posted of the car.

Do you have any of the details around your brake caliper brackets? Drawings, measurements, etc.
