St. Louis Help
Bought a new to me FFR that has a few issues I need help with. Water pump, replacement, parking brake button broken, sporadic high idle, fuel guage not working, etc. It was built in 2003 using a stock motor from a 1988 GT and a new Tremec T5. Of course I'd be happy to pay for the assistance. Anyone on the St. Louis area interested in a winter project?

That doesn't sound like a full winter project.. there are a number of folks here in STL that would walk you through the project...
Good way to really learn about your car..

Welcome to the Roadster family.
