I wasn't sure how those wheels would look on a first gen, but they are great.

Two FBs and an SA at the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix Asian Car Show in July. Mine is on the left.
The sky wasn't quite that dramatic, but I like it. I bought my car new in February '84.

Thanks, The first RX7 we owned was a 79 in Sonic Bronze, I let it go when garage space was at a premium and really regretted that decision. Found this one and we really like the blue. The original owner kept it in good shape, it has been resprayed but is doing well so far.

Hopefully I will not need a fender but I cringe every time I get out on the road here in Houston. I was out of town on 7/7 this year and really wanted to go to the meet in Austin so I've blocked that out for next year. It seems Austin and DFW areas have a lot more activity for RX7 meets.

Very pretty car. I would imagine that you do not see a lot of them on the road over there anymore.

Surrounded by a whole lot of $$$ cars, but the brown one has the most character! I may be biased…
