JESUS!.. I just came back from the junkyard, It's really bad when the junkyard RX-7's are in better shape then the one I am about to buy.. really all it needs are replacement doors so i can start with the body work and new paint job. all the other stuff I am just getting beause they look nice but he wants $250 for each door. Maby I can give him the old doors for a cheaper price and there was a 91 there with a nice front facia that I would love to have on my 87 but sadly there was NO TAIL LIGHTS!!! and no turbo's either for the hoods, mirrors or spoiler. Anyone want to donate??

I'm sure you can find those for sale in the For sale/Wanted section... or check www.thepartstrader.com. I'm amazed at how many people want to buy/sell stuff through the 2nd gen specific when there's a section for it just down the page from the 2nd gen section. And thepartstrader is a pretty good place too. I've dealt with people on there that are really helpful.

So you know, you don't have to look for just TII doors. You could use some GXLs or what is it in Canada, "GX" or something. They are all power too. But so you know, power windows aren't all they cracked up to be. Most of them have alot of problems and to be honest I wouldn't mind having some roll up windows.

I have maual power windows. They have a nice electrical switch, but they never seem to want to go up. Every time I drive this car and put the windows down.... or even accelerate for that matter, I wish I could trade my 87TII for my 90GXL. God Damn that thing was perfect and now I have this heap of **** that nothing works..............

The one I am looking at is a GX and has manual windows. I was just hoping that maby if I was going to replace the doors anyways I could throw in power windows but I dunno the rust really isnt that bad (Just surface like on the paint) so I could probably fix that all up with my mad sanding and bondo skillz. lol
I wasent looking at the TII's for doors just the other TII only parts.
