My second 7! First one running :\

Well yeah I've been on these forums for a while, and i figure its time to post up.

I picked up my first 7 (87 turbo II 161k body, 21k rebuild) a few months ago for 2000$ put her in the garage and slowly started working on her. The fuel line blew on the previous owner which burnt the vacuum hoses, oil injectors, fuel injectors, and wiring harness. There might be other things but i don't have the time right now with work and school.



I just recently picked up my second about a week ago, and I'm loving it. It was the first time i actually drove one and i have no regrets. 87 turbo II 181k body 14k rebuild 1k rebuilt turbo for 4500$. And have receipts back to 2003.





Lots of plans for them both, just need the time... and the money. I don't think i could go back to pistons... unless its a winter beater.
