Happy new owner

Well guys some ones lose is anothers gain, For about 2 months now I have been going past this auto body and tow shop just admirring this sweet 85 GSL-SE, Finally I walked in and asked what was the deal with the RX-7, the owner of the shop came up and said you want it it's yours for 700. YAH, being that I'm broke I gave him my last 100 bucks to hold it, and I told him I'll be back on thursday to come pick it up, I will post pics soon, the body is great shape, as well as the interior.Not bad if I say so my self!! It's there cause of a bad fuel pump.

In order to raise money I will be selling alot of my 12a stuff, including an engine, blaster coils,new carb,fan and fan clutch, a few other things
I am in rhode island on the mass border

Hang onto some of your 12a stuff, as the -SE's are not that much different when it comes to engine cooling fans, coils, etc.

I speak from experience wherein my 80LS became my parts car for my 84SE. Wait until after you have the SE home before you make decisions on what to sell - you may regret getting rid of parts that may be in better condition on your 12a car.

Welcome to the (SE) club, and congratulations on that purchase - a new fuel pump is a cheap investment to the car you're getting,
