I just finished pulling all the parts out of my FD. The roll bar was a mother ******. Diff and tranny are both out. No hood or lights. Doors and fender are stored away. She looks so bare....
So I stood there for about a minute thinking of all the crazy **** I did with her. I've said it before and I'll say it again...owning an FD is like dating a super model. Yeah she's a bitch....but she's sooooo hot.
I shead a tear(s) looking at her. Maybe one day I can own another one.

You don't want pics. Imagine a hot *** supermodel without her makeup and wardrobe.
Why did I do it? 3 children. In Japan, we're only allowed 1 car per licensed driver in a household. So my wife has a Toyota minivan and I had the 7. The FD was impractical for 3 kids. I could only fit either my wife, Alex, Evan or Vanessa in the car, but not all 4 at the same time. I had no motor in her. The only plates I had to rebuild her with were bridgeport plates. She ran out of JCI (japan's version of a extremely difficult inspection) in December. I couldn't drive any of my kids in her because of the noise, plus no AC.
I still own an Fc in the states so I'm still "loyal", but it hurts me to put her down. She had to go. This was the hardest decision for me to make. I had to do it for my family...and I hope my family understands when I take a moment of silence, bow my head and shead a tear because it really does hurt to see her go...
