Looks like the car decided it didn't like the piston engine and spat the parts out through the hood... (*circa 2001)

So you man someone ruined it haha I hate it when people stop by and tell me to just throw a v8 in it. Like screw off you obviously don’t know the cool factor and beauty of a rotary.

Orange rx-7's look great!

It looks better than the sunrise red which reminds me christmas.

Maybe rustoleum didn't get the RA sunrise red color correct?

Is that car an unfinished v8 swap?

And it begs the questions, are you gonna buy it and did you ever find out any history in the car?
