My missing Rx7...

Several years ago, I made the mistake of selling one of my prized project cars; a 1980 Rx7, bright red with flames applied to the front end. The car carries the designation "Land Speed Race Car #212". The last known owner was in Southern California. If anyone has any information regarding this car's whereabouts, I'd appreciate hearing from you... as I say, the car has a degree of sentimental value & I'm anxious to buy it back from whoever might be the current owner. I'm not currently internet-active so I'm supplying my son's e-mail address as a means to correspond with me (he says he'll relay your message immediately).

Thanks!

Good. Get that thing back, and never sell it again.

i made the same mistake with the same car, it took me eight years, and i found a similar (but never be the same) car. It is a 79 and one day she will resemble my beloved 80 I once owned. The very best of luck
