It is awfully close Dave. The last one I added I was successful getting buy-in from my loving wife with the "but this will be YOUR car" approach. While I know she'll never go for that one again it was good for one additional Rx-7.

the only way that i can buy the car is if i sell my 85 S..which i was planning on anyways..so with that said, its impossible that the car will sell before the actions close and once again i will be left wanting a 79 Limited i've been wanting another SA too..

Just tell her its a "parts car" you can turn it into a project car after you get it home and discover how valuable it is..........

that car is in BFE, MI. It looks like it's starting to succumb to rust pretty badly. However, for $280, it may be worth it.

for 380 as it is now sure

Looks like crap but for the price decent, I don't know rusty 1st gens well (We got a 79 NO rust, but i'm in cali) but from the looks, probably is rusted bad and only the interior is worth it, but that interior is probably worth 200, and the engine parts are probably decent.

This I said for the price its ok, then again I guess some may cream themselv that its a limited sa, looks like any other first gen to me :P, in that condition atleast ^_^

man would I love a 85 GSL-SE though -_- find me one of those for 300 near cali and I'll give you a e-job

Any updates on this? I can't view sites classified as auctions or gambling. Is Dave passing out cigars yet?

Hmmm, Is this a challange? A sign? A greeting? I hope it's not an actual invitation....This might get interesting, I'm going to make some pop corn.
