After 7 years of toys its time to throw in the towel!

Its been a long fun road but there comes a time when you need to seperate from your toys. Oh I'm not selling the RX-7 Just the toys! Most of them just sit there and look pretty and I think its time for some other die hard RX-7 junkies to enjoy them as I once did. I know this is not the for sale section, but this is a rare chance to grab a few items from and avid RX-7 / Rotary collector! I'm going to miss them, but will enjoy the extra space around the house. If anyone has any questions on an item don't hesitate to ask.

Wonder who is going to get the 1st Gen cake pan?


See signature for link to the list of items for sale, and thanks for looking!

You had me worried for a sec, I thought you selling the car and leaving us.

That pan would make a nice large brownie, so says Alice.

I dont want to out myself here but Ive been making my son car birthday cakes since he turned 2. I already said his next would be an rx7 cake but I planned on mod'ing my plain car pan cake and fixing it up with icing. Looking at your auction you do have a lot of rx7 crap!

Do you combine shipping? NO! must resist!!!

I really like how the engine stand says "fewer parts - fewer problems"

Sorry if this isn't a smart question but why does the engine display cost so much? Is it because it is an original? I know they have things like that at hobby huts, not as scientific but like the engine itself. I am sorry I am not trying to be a smart *** but what makes it so valuable?

Its a good question Its only the 2nd one I've ever seen complete in the 7+ years I've been collecting. Its a full scale replica of the rotary at the time, its 30+ years old and still in great shape. There are only a handfull of these still around and you could never buy one, they were at the dealerships and when they got rid of them either into a dumpster of someone took one home. The last one on Ebay they guy was asking $3k for it. I'm a little cheaper
