I may stop by sometime with my tii. Hopefully fixing the last few things this weekend. ******* worst part of owning a rotary is ordering parts, then having them fuckup your order or not send them at all.....its a long road to a good running car...

Ahhh, I wanted to see that RX3. I hope he brings it back sometime. I had to coach volleyball last night, but I'll be back again at some point. Keep the rotaries comin'. I'm sure there are a few other hidden gems out there!

Hey Everyone,

This is unrelated to Sonic, but since everyone is subscribed...A friend of a friend is selling his 87 TII with no engine. I don't know this guy or have any incentive to push a sale, but my friend gave me more pics and info than what's in his CL ad. So I thought I'd share what I have because the car looks clean and could be a good project for someone. I added some more pics and I think the price is negotiable.

It's this ad on Craigslist:
http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ra...564748634.html

"It is a Red 1987 Mazda Rx7 Turbo II, 105,267 miles. Mint Interior. Upgraded cd player and rear speakers – Infinity. No Motor, Turbo, Downpipe, Clutch, and radiator. Still has the 5 Speed Trans, Racing Beat Exhaust minus the downpipe, There are a hand full of extra engine stuff in a few boxes that I have nothing major. The car has been stored winters since new. On the passenger rear side there is an issue with the clear coat I think It was resprayed before me and it bubbled and peeled(in a car wash) before I was able to catch it. Really doesn’t look too bad. Other than the rock coat showing on the passenger side the body is clean. I will also include a pair of 3rd gen brake calipers that will fit as well (sprayed black).
When it was last running everything inside worked perfectly."

You guys still doing these? Good crowd still show up in the fall? I might come check it out. I need a reason to drive my street car more often. It sits in the garage far too much.

Im fighting my winter nesting instincts, those cold drafts and last bits of paint can screw off for a day.

Anyone gonna brave the cold? Tubo cars love this weather.

Greg, We are going to be doing our "Winter Mode" location tonight and the rest of Winter unless it warms up randomly. I'll post a new thread for it since this one says Sonic

Carbones in West St Paul MN - around the same time.

I guess I can show up on Wednesday too, but it wouldn't be in my RX-7 unfortunately (up on jackstands at the moment). Still, I'll try to be there to meet you all.

Cool, see you there. I have a feeling we are not the only ones with this idea. Should be fun.
