Why are rx-7's like little orphaned children?
 
I think I found a 83 GSL for cheap.. Its got a nice interior, very nice paint, southern car - NO RUST i checked...112k on the odo

It needs a carb, I think I can snag it for about $200 cash...

Like I need another freaking car..

You just had to say this didn't you. How do you get these great deals?

They're just so damn cute and appealing that you want to protect and nurture them.

I know. And I see some people driving a Rex and I think to myself, "Man, he don't know shit about that car. He don't deserve that." Sometimes I want to steal them from people:eek: so I can have them all to myself.

Kinda like money:p:

A RX7 is like pussy,you can never have to much..

I was at the autoparts store over the last weekend,I noticed a silver RX7 looked very rough..I went inside bougth my shit ..came back otu saw a guy workin on it,

I went over and talked to him.Once I got over I noticed the LE badged..some ass painted the car silver and not the OEM color.

The body was dirty as hell and needed work,The engine was a oil fire waiting to happen,Someoen put a 6 port 13b with an OLD J tech intake and a Holley,They guy dont know how to work on his car..and every time he needs shti done he takes it to Orlando ..about 100? miles away from Tampa?

Well anyways he wanted me to do a rebuild and a port job..I cannot fuckin stand 6 port engines,I dont knwo if I should past up this side job or what..I have no worked on a 6 port before but every thins is gone and pluged that he doesnt need.The car runs it just has bad oil leaks and hewants a rebuild and port job.

Does he even need to keep the EGR valve on it?
Maybe I should take on this job so I can get some easy cash,BUT This looks like a headache in the making..

It must be a Kentucky thing... Let me know if you don't take it, and I will come and get her.:p: It isn't blue is it. I saw a blue one just outside of Owensboro behind someones garage when we were on the way out with Jeremy's car.

No its silver, theres a brown one in Rockport, IN right across the bridge/ its right off main street. Its a GSL i think, probally 84/85. Its been sitting for about 7 months. I know it would go for cheap, looks to be in decent shape.

Manntis 01-01-03 01:32 PM

I need a rust-free one (preferrably 84-85) for my Miata suspension/steering swap project...

I don't get how you guys get these great deals!?

I think my se is the best $500 I could have ever spent. It is so cool to have a car that is unlike anything else in town.
