i was going to sell my 83 gs for a mere $450, but then i got a job the day after i put it up for sale. now i just cant bear the thought of selling it. being that i have an rx7 awaiting an engine rebuild, i now have a green light to take it all the way down and start from scratch...not a bad deal if you ask me.

as of 7:00 tonight i will be towing the car to my dad's house and pushing it in to the garage. i plan to put it on stands, drain the fluids and take pics tonight. i also plan on beginning the teardown and labeling process tonight. we will see how late dad lets me work on it

will post the pics as soon as i get them developed. im so damn jazzed right now. i have said it many times and i will say it again : I love this car!

 

here's what i did in 4-5 hrs today, a little motivation for ya.
i would have got the engine out as well but it was getting dark and i didnt feel like pushing the car under the tree.
before and after pics, hopefully you wont have quite the mess to deal with.

 

looks like fun

 

that is pretty good progress. mine looks very similar to the before pic so i have a feeling that it is going to get fun. kinda like playing in a grease pit lol

 

GIT-R-DONE! Good luck and be persistent and you'll have something to show off and be proud of.

 

It doesn't take much to tear down a rotary. I brought the 12A in my 82 to the point you see in the pics above and then lifted it out with a friend and a 7 foot length of 4x4 wood. I did it all in about 6 hours too, and thats with 2 hours worth of breaks too. It was actually harder to take the complete engine out of my 84 parts car with an engine hoist.
