junkyard, look in your phone book and give local places calls. 79 and 80 are the same. I think the metal is different on the 81-85 since the trim is different

I have a door that's rusted at the bottom and has cancerous rust underneath the plastic trim. You want it?

you can also check ebay for doors. That's a pretty good source for that kind of thing.

I have 3 spare doors for an 81. I'll check which side as soon as I can get enough energy to dig through my shed. i know at least one is passenger side. Before I dig, will 81 fit 79?

Hey Schrodes I live in Saskatoon and there a guy up here that has a bunch of rx-7's. I got a door for my FC from him it was like 100 with glass and everything and he has a bunch of fb's. There is also an import recker in Cupar if you know were that is. They might have some stuff. Actually now that I think of it last time I was at Bucks in Regina they had to FB's with perfectly good bodies but they might not have them anymore cause they go through cars really quick. it's worth a shot though.

Man.. its damn near himpossible to find any 1stgen 7's in Regina that aren't picked over and completely looted.... one of the guys that works (or used to work anyways) out at Bucks here has 2 1stgens that run and he gets dibs on all the parts first... i've been told cupar has most of the wrecked 7's around here..... in Regina check out Sharky's.. i think its off Winnipeg street.. they always have doors and glass... i think $75 for a total piece (door and glass) was what they qutoted me last time
