Got another one...
I need to remember that RX-7's are not Pokemon- I don't have to catch 'em all. Still, getting this one at auction for what I did I really can't complain about. The plan is to rebuild the blown engine and transfer it into my 'vert. It'll be tricky given the 'vert is a S4 and this an S5- but I don't figure on it being done until around this time next year anyway, and everybody needs a hobby. :P
A few (bad, since this was really late after getting it home last night) pictures below.

Amusingly, I met him last night as well as I was locking it up after the tow truck driver dropped it off- apparently he lives just down the street from me, though I'd never seen the car around the area before (just sitting at the dealership). I felt a bit stupid after the fact for not asking him about the specifics of what all it has on it. 
I'd rather not say what I got it for- it was probably more than what I should have paid for it, but accounting for the parts on it that I want it works out as being a good deal in my book, which is what matters to me.
The body on it is in pretty good shape- it's got a few dings here and there, and there's a hole in the lower driver's side of the front bumper (you can see it in the pic), but otherwise it looks really good IMO. I don't currently have any plans for the body after pulling the drivetrain and other stuff that I want to swap into my 'vert (shocks, springs, wheels, etc.- I've got stock parts to put back on it). I have a friend up in Cinci who might be interested in it, but otherwise I'd probably see if I could get a good price for it as a roller. I'd much rather sell it as a roller than part it out simply because I already have a 'vert to part out at some point (and would like to spend my time enjoying driving my 'vert than constantly taking apart other cars :P) and it's almost too nice to tear apart.

Heh. Didn't think about that, though it doesn't worry me a whole lot- the previous owner knows where I live and half the people here seem to know him anyway. ;P
gxl87turbo I'll keep in mind that you're interested in it- though one of the reasons I picked it up was the I wanted the wheels off it for my 'vert. They're one of the few styles I've seen that I think will look as good on it as the stock BBS wheels do.
