Somewhere in california...my brother in law's buddy has a serious first gen collection.

These pics are just the ones at his house.

You should see his shop. First gen parts stacked to the rafters. :o

W O W ! thats ALOT OF FB's!!!

 

and u people think they r rare lol


j/k hehehe

 

well adam, its ppl like that guy, and of course you know jeff, that make these cars "rare"

 

Over 200,000 SA/FBs have died, so somewhere there is a big parking lot in the sky.

 

i dont think there was even 200,000 rx-7's manufactured fron 79-85....
well im thinking in the united states at least...

 

One of them looks like a convertible 1st gen...

 

the car in the bottom right on the 3rd pic is a miata, im 99.9 percent sure

 

oh dam#
tell me where in cal so i can get some spare part
JK

 

We need to round up some tow trucks and rescue these things, like the Rotary Humane Society.

 

Holy hell!Havent seen so many together,err well ever!

Good point DSMPOWERED!Lets go get them guys,they cant die a misreable live!

 

There were about 360,000 SA/FBs sold in the USA from total production of 471,000. Its difficult to get an exact number as some Gen 2 were included in the 85 sales figures.

The best estimate is that in the US some 65-70% have died. In other countries the death rate is vastly different, for example 90% in Japan, 35% in Australia. I have heard that in New Zealand its less than 20% as they love old cars.

 

It seems like all the cars are out in Cali.

 

SO.. thats where all the parts cars are going..

 

ever been to washington?

 

RX7th Heaven

 

theres a guy in puyallup, its his shop, but outside of the shop theres just tons of FC's and FB's and a few miatas... its absurd... most r pretty junky, i've heard he doesn't like to get rid of his parts...

 

have you guys seen the monster garage with the fc? I know they totally ruined the car and for that they suck but there was a short clip in that show showing a rx7 graveyard parts place... There was sevens left right and centre...

 

Man, most of those cars look to be in better shape than most of what's for sale in ontario!

 

I've seen that show, but didn't notice the 7 graveyard.

 

Nice looking yard. Wonder if he just parts them one at a time or keeps them back for him self.

 

When you are talking about RX-7s dying, are talking about engines or cars? I bet the number triples if you talk about the engines.

 

those ******** blew up that vert... its their fault it didn't work, not the car's...

 

Yep... and it wasa nice clean one too.

 

you guys think they all run?
