It's great to see another 7 in the Atlanta area, almost never happens though. I drive those roads more than 100 miles a day and almost never see one. Haven't seen the bronze one either. But look for the Turd, it's brown and will be going past you.

I should have my 79 back down here in the next month or two. I just need to get my RB muffler and E-fan off my new parts car onto it.

KC, post some pictures of your car so we'll know what to look for. Here's mine, and on the last page of the site there's a bunch of photos of Atlanta area rotor heads and 7s:

I keep hoping with the summer I'll see a few more around, but none yet (except when we get together at Jeffries).

I'll get some current pictures together. It's a 79 limited. I kept it totally stock, even the wheels. Nothing has been changed. Its that charcoal metallic, with 13" alloy wheels.

Currently I have doors off, carpet out and Im mining for rust. Il'l take some pictures.

Hope to be in good shape again in a week or so.

I have a red 79 that is not currently moving. Just got a carb rebuild kit and considering trying it.

I'll have to come find you guys when I'm back on the road.

KC

Wow that's a rare vintage car you've got there KC, please show us the photos when you get them together. And go get that rust, if you catch it in time you'll add many years to your car! I did the same thing to my 85 when I got it and found some serious but still easily fixable rust spots, see the Turd's web page for pictures and an easy repair.

I've done it a few times over the last 25 years. Chase a few spots.

I moved out here from Calif to Atlanta a few years ago for work. With all i had to do, she didnt get the immediate attention she should have, but now is the time to make it up to her.

Also a couple things that just linger that I want to get to, like the antennae, some new mouldings here and there, hatch shocks..things i have been puttin off.

We have been having awesome weather...losing my pasty white now getting a little tan in the driveway...hood up and all the cleaning stuff and tools....just messing around.

A good way to spend time!

The weather has been great, also no parched brown earth, fires, floods, earthquakes, oxygen therapy or Swartzenneggers!
