Mariah Rx7's?

I have a 1981 Rx7 with a Mariah Mode 1 bodykit.

I'm trying to find others who also has this kit or that has experiance of it.

I may try to build a section at my site with other Mariah's if I get enought respons.

Look at my site for pictures of my car.

BTW How do I get a "thumb" of my car to the left??

I have one

One of my RX-7s ('83 GSL) has a Mariah Mode One body kit. I bought it a couple months ago, but I don't really know much about it yet, not even sure if it runs as the carb was/is off of it.
It also needs some body work as its rusted below the hatch and the fibre glass is kinda rough/cracked in a few places. The interior is also kinda tired.
As soon as I have the time I will try to get it running and then decide what to do with it.... restore, sell, part.

I know a guy that used to have a Mode One that was sweet (I have only seen pictures), beautiful silver paint, 12A Turbo, 8mpg! If you want info on it, I am sure I could hook you up

I've been working on my 82 gauges set. Actually, I finished them, I just haven't posted them on my webpage. If you want to, I can email you a link so you can see them when I get home from work. Email me and I will post them. They will be the ones I will be installing in my ride... one of a kind....So if you want to see them email me....

You can pick an Avatar (that's what the little pic is called) by going to "User Profile" on the top menu. Then click on "Edit Options". Avatars are down at the bottom. You can't create a custom Avatar until you hit 100 posts tho, so you'll have to choose from the existing ones.

Hey duck!

Can we have some specs on your car?
It looks nice... what are the rims?

I put a lowering kit on mine this weekend... looks better but I'm unsure about the rear.. the tires are very close to the body..

Anyone with experiance on lowering the Mariah?
