niceley done

 

yeah, just lower it and it'll look even better. it reminds me of some sort of 60's ferarri.

 

thats really really nice...
I wonder what it looks like with the roof up

 

That trunk lid panel is off an old 626

 

If anyone is serious about buying this, let me know. I just talked to the seller and he is local to me, about 20 minutes away.

I was thinking about dropping by to take a look at the car, anyway - just to see a convertible up close and see how it's been done. If I do, I'll report back here with the condition and pricing if the guy is willing to sell outside of his E-bay listing.

 

Wow...wow.

That would be awesome to do an SE or other 13b swap into...

 

nice if i had the cash right now id buy it

 

gawd, it's beautiful.......oh that carpet looks so nice

 

Such a beautiful car. It'd look even better as an -SE 'vert with the stock wheels and such, I think. 1st gen convertible conversions are usually pretty flimsy in comparison to a stock one, right? Too bad its an auto, as well.

 

nice pics!

 

love the door panels

 

Did they ever make a black dashboard? I thought they were gray and maroon. Beautiful car.

 

I like the stock look better, but I've always thought that hard tops look much better than verts. Nicely done though!

 

I also have one of these not in as good a shape.
150 or so were built by Pacific Avitar. I beleave the company was out of CA.

 

I LIKE IT it reminds me of one of thoose alfa veloce spiders but it looks 1000% cooler and it gets points for kickin the rotory !!

 

How come there's no pics of the top?

Only $3000 and the reserve is met? Wow again...

SOMEBODY STOP ME FROM BIDDING BEFORE MY WIFE COMES IN THE ROOM!!!

 

I like the doors & carpet job on that car..

absolutely beautiful work from what teh pictures show..

 

Awesome. I don't think it's a Pacific Avatar unless somebody else knows better. Looks very nice but probably needs some work for that price. First thing get rid of that auto!!!! wonder why the Carfax says 125,000 miles and he is saying 66k? kinda odd, but who cares. 13b would go in there nice. The dash is probably gray it just looks darker in the picture. Stop me my wife would kill me too.

 

looks like the one nick with rotary reliability & racing someone got an old catalog form them? I think they called it the california coupe. I do not think its a pacific avatar either. they did a lot of work to thiers thats not on that car.

 

Im almost positive its a PA car. They used a 626 trunk like icemark said. I dont know if anyone else did that. The others Ive seen didnt use that trunk. Yes they were out of CA. I have an old rotary rocket magazine from the old Rx7 national club and they advertised in there.

 

Could be, but other people could have used the 626 lid also, because PA used it. The only PA pics I have are on what looks like an '81 so I can't tell, and they might have changed a few things over the years. But didn't the PA's have some kind of lid that the top retracted into??

 

Sweet! by the way I have a black dash in my 83'

 

You can see in other pictures that the dash is actually gray; it just looks dark in certain light. 83's and earlier had black but the mark III cars (84-85) did not have black as far as I know.

 

that car only has 2 items that PA used on their cars that I can see. 1 is the 626 trunk lid and 2 is the epsilon wheels. the line where the roof was cut is wrong for a PA car and look at how the braces on the doors for the window where done, they are differant than the PA car. I can not find my pic from PA that shows where the top mounts to the windshield but from memory that looks differant also. carl what was the name of that kit car company on the east coast of florida that did the 930 rx7 conversions? the pictures look a lot like the convertable kit they sold. does it?
