Cool NJ RX-7 Fest 2002 FB line-up

Just got back from the NJ RX-7 BBQ today! In fact, it's probably still going on as I write this. A good time was had by all! I'm please to announce that there was quite a nice representation of FB's amoungst the sea of FC and FD's. Here's a pic of the FB line-up.

I spy a green SA about 5 deep!

Looks like a great turnout. I am always the only 1st gen that shows up at our local meets. Lots of 2nd gens, a few 3rd gens, and me. I'm jealous of NJ now....

Later,
James

The green SA is real nice with super low miles. 20 some k I think. Unfortunately, the poor thing experienced a little accident during the event. The rear hatch glass got dropped and it shattered into a million pieces. Then it rained, no, let me re-phrase, it down poured! ouch! I 'm embarrassed to say that I didn't get an opportunity to meet the owner but I'm sure she'd be grateful if someone could locate replacement glass hatch for her baby. BTW, I believe the SA hatches are different than the FB's.

Now, why can't we get turnouts like that in CA. Heh. I know there are a few FBs in the Sacramento area. I just can't seem to meet many of the drivers.

Nice showing you guys! Really nice!
