hey bud, have you tried the Motorsport collector in Illinois. I was just there last week and bought way to much stuff but he would be a good place to start
I'll check them out now that you mentioned them. Didn't realize there was a market for this, I bought a limited edition Miami F1 poster that was limited to 2022 prints for around $70 shipped. At the time I thought it was a lot and when it arrived at my GFs house... she thought it was beautiful but surprisingly didn't see an issue with the price. They're selling for 275.00 - 350.00 on eBay and Mercari, guess there's a buyer for anything.

just text you all some other options also along with my pick ups from the MC in Chicago
Thanks brother and two more to go, the 1985 poster is going to be the most expensive solely because it was a Coca Cola sponsored event. Coca Cola antique collectors grab these up so I've seen varying prices, all within reach so at least there's that.
Well guys it looks like we'll need to update the Dragon timeframe. I'm getting extended to the end of October now and hopefully that's the only extension I'll be making. So with all that said, I'm aiming for the for the first weekend of December unless the weather is trash in that area at that time. Any advice from the guys live in the area?
On a lighter note I found the last poster I needed for the garage. Found the official poster from 1985 and the Coca Cola poster is the Promotional poster, had no idea there was a difference.
After looking through the parts I have, these are the ones I'm missing:
Camber Plate set (F) = Tarett($450) - OEM(425)Inner Control Arm Mono set = DSM(480)
LCA shims = N/A
Almost at the finish line with the parts I need and I might as well buy rear LCAs as well but don't think they need to be adjustable.
Got around to buying a set of Demon Speed branded LCA inners and also bought the Shift Right kit along with a 997 alignment tool. Once I get the shims, I'll have all the parts needed for the LCAs. Probably looking to start with these widths for shims with Aaron recommending extra sets of 10mm if I want to go past 1 degree of camber:
4x1mm
4x3mm
2x6mm
2x10mm
Starting to get pretty excited now that I'm half way through this deployment and have most of the parts I'll need to lower the car, should have that done the first week I'm home.

I have to laugh a little bit, because I know this exact feeling of ordering thousands of dollars of car parts while on deployment. You’ll be home soon, brother!

Worst part about all of that is not buying all the parts in one shot! I'm sprinkling in some purchases over the 6 months so it's not a burden on my girlfriend. Big heavy parts go to my buddy's shop in Cutler Bay but he's also running a business and I'm not really trying to abuse that privilege.
Ha I’ll keep that in mind when I order my 4.0 block and pistons.
I can go pick up all your parts today if you want. I’m right around the corner. I’ll even install them on my car first so I can give you feedback on the performance.
