My new 7.... Lucky #7? (die 56K!)

This makes for the SEVENTH first gen RX-7 that I've owned...


I'm going to Orlando on Friday to pick it up... I paid $350 for it.

It's a 1984 GS... WITH A SUNROOF!! YAY!

looks like you have a nice project ahead of you (again!)

Tell me you at least managed to salvage your old rims, though?

This one boing to be a widebody as well?

BTW, something I noticed, your headlights look funny, or is it just me?

Funny story with the 85...


Since I can't afford to get it out of the tow yard, they're putting it up for auction...

a friend of mine here is going to buy the car, and I'm splitting the cost of it with him... I get my rims and exhaust back, and he gets the rest of it. I'll be DAMNED if those rims don't come back to where they belong!

Apparently 80K on the car... original motor.


I have to do a compression test on it, but it sounds like a helluva deal to me!
