^ i had called about the wheels, then i saw this thread lol you just posted it first my morning routine:

1. get to work
2. get coffee
3. check craiglsist for rx7's and parts
4. rx7club.com
5. actually do some work
6. go home

As you can see, I have no life ever since last October 2010 when I got my 1st love!

Just wondering if you've made it back for additional parts off this car?

Yep, I was on vacation last week. (a much needed one I called the guy with the car today an an the only day he is available is Friday. So, unless it's supposed to pour down rain, I'll have the parts by then. Sorry for the lack of communication, but I did get all of your pm's and I have everything you guys want written down.

i do not believe it is spoken for, but I cant tell you if the 79's are any better than the rest. If you want the parts, let me know what you would spend on them.

Glad to be of assistance. You've obviously given that dash a very good home. I'll have to see it in person the next time I am in Vegas. I am usually there once a year to visit my mother and sister who live near Sun City/ Lone Mountain.
