a sorry sight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

today i was driving in my neighborhood and saw an RX-7 w/ a body kit...it looked like it was under construction so i thought i'd stop and see what he was doing to it.....I knocked on the door and this guy showed me the car....it was filled to the top w/trash! the motor was gone and the guy told me if i wanted it i could have it,he just wanted it out of his driveway..anyway,the body kiy was riveted on and missing the front bumper but all the glass was on it,he through the leather seats away and as far as the rest of the inside of the car goes,...it's filled to the top W/TRASH! so it has no title and is full of trash.....and yes,the windshield is broke. If anyone needs something p.m. me

My FB is a project but I keep it covered and it is not a dumpster neither. What a loser. Another FB down the drain.

Get it... It's still probably got lots of useful parts... No engine, but is there a tranny?

Axle is on it, body parts, tail lights... Hell, it could be a decent rolling chassis.

Just roll it down the street and act like you don't know who's it is. They'll tow it off eventually

Part it out so it may live on. Then offer the body to someone for a racecar. I know someone in St Louis who might be interested in it.

Fill it with random food objects and leave it in a poor neighborhood.

Really.

How bout pull an engine and drivetrain from a slammer or something that's horrendously rusted out at the scrap yard and put it in this chassis, then sell it to some college kid that's into RX-7's...

There are plent of places that will take a car without a title, especially older cars. As a last resort you could cut it up and toss it in the garbage (over a period of weeks of course) and I'm not joking either, it wouldn't be that hard to chop it up.

I sure could use a power antenna and that dang little "storage cup" thingy this is just below the radio in my 83. Previous owner just seemed to have lost these things-go figure.

Don't cut it up, strip it and leave it in the middle of the street. LOADS of fun watching people figure that one out!

Or, if you REALLY hate the guy, and no paperwork was done for you to take the car off his hands, DONT STRIP THE VINS. That way they can track it back to his neglectful abusive *** and hit him with a big ol' fine. Mwahahahaha.

And, yes, the taillight will fit.

What thing below the radio? Pics? I may have a spare.
