would anyone be interested in my widebody gto rx7?

I have came to a point that I have to make some changes, and need to move soon, and unfortunately I can not take the GTO widebody rx7 with me. I was wondering if anyone would be interested in buying it before a put it up for sale. FOr all those that do not know, I had a engine fire last summer, and it destroyed the hood and passenger finder. I have a stock hood on it, and two nice headlight assemblies. THe rest of the car is there, interior is pretty much stripped out, needs a windshield, no motor or tranny, has a rear end in it, and second gen front suspension , that only needs two studs welded in to compelete it. I bought two extra fenders that are widebody, but are not exact, and was going to mold them to fit the front end. this is included. No wheels or tires, that you guys saw it with. It is a project car with out a doubt, but with the right care, this is one of the most different Rx-7's you could own. I was wanting at least $500 for it, and must be picked up soon after sale. Rear wing is already sold. The car is very rust free, and orignal black, 75,000 miles on it. I will post pics soon of its current condition.

Okay I finally got the time to take some pics (I'm super busy) anyway here is the car, its dusty as hell, I didnt have time to wipe it down. I have some requirements for the buyer. If you buy it, it must be picked up in one week from purchase. Okay, in the pics you can see the new white front fenders, and how close they are to the original front end. I am including the good driver fender, and damaged passenger fender. I would like $500 firm for the car, which is without the wind and front defusers, or $950 for the car, wing and defusers. It has a rear end in it, with some crappy 13" wheels, and in the front is a second gen suspension, with some 16" 240 wheels. Sold as is, includes the racing beat front strut brace.

some more pic. THe car does need some work, and I could easily do it, just dont have the time space and money to do so. I really would like to see this great car fall into the right hands, and restore it into the legend it was before.

I rode in this car a few times (even drove it) with the t2 engine in it and the 1st gen suspension with the 15X8 rims and 15X10 rims. It was a ******* blast!!! I have never ridden in a better handling car in my life, and I know this could handle better with the t2 suspension and even wider tires. The kit is the most beatiful kit I have ever seen on a 1st gen.

thanks,it was the best handling car I've ever been in also. It will be a hard task for me to build something that takes a corner faster.
