Congratulations on the new 7, let's see it!

And that 15 Rotor looks pretty impressive.

Ray, I think Richard may be an honorary OGTA.

Get back to us with the pics.

Well, I went to pick up the car and it was overpriced for the condition. Not safe to drive. so I held out. O Now I am the proud owner of a 1980 Heathkit Rx7. some assembly required. I am saving it from a fate of V8,which was the previous owners plan. first will be fresh paint. It is missing the engine and transmission. Really looking at keeping it 12a.
Next year will be my 20th anniversary with the rotary. I have not been active all these years, but it is good to be back.

Nice! Whats the interior like? Is this a S or GS? We can tell you if you get some interior shots up
on here.

Factory sunroof, so... GS.

Interior looks like the grounds of a pick and pull. dash is cracked and seats need to be redone . most looks ok.

This is akin to a big box of Lego right now.

The reason I asked about the SA interior bits, is its hard to put hands on good GS interior bits
like the chrome border on the shifter boot, the chrome strips on the door and dash and the
little chrome caps on the end of the arm rests. Thats just the tip o the iceberg.

Sounds like a true project but at the right price I'm sure its worth it.
