$400.00 nice pick up. Why the hell anyone puts Cregars on a Rx-7 I don't know.
Hope she turns out to match your dreams.

I like the wheels. Anything is better than he stockers. Almost anything. The spoiler is the best I've seen IMO, but I still don't like em. Really good find.

These cars are helluva fun to restore. The fact that mine makes me curse and get mad just gives me that much more satisfaction.

There are two more filters on the banjo bolts which connect to fuel lines to the carb. Pull the bolts and check those filters. They are there to catch smaller stuff that makes it through the main filter. If it has been run out of gas several times a lot of the really small particles may be clogging those small filters and restricting fuel flow. Worth a look anyway.

Good Luck!
