When i go to sell my 7 i will throw some big goofy stickers on the side of it and tell everyone its a limited edition. There is always that idiot that will believe it.

there was NO "iroc" FC from the factory.
a harness setup like that will do more harm than good.

It is a base model (no sunroof, no storage bins) with the sports Aero package to drop the Cd from .32 to .29 and half the rear coefficient of lift (Clr) from .14 to .o7 and it has 5 lug brake and 15" wheel upgrades as well.

That is a pretty unusual mix of parts and the best there would have been in '86 before the TII came stateside. There may be something to this cars history.

Body looks good too (Stored inside?). If it was near me I would pay $1,500 or more for the body if it was original paint.

Its not an Iroc RX-7 from the factory.
Its a Factory Prepared RX-7 Race Car for IROC - International Race of Champions.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IROC
Cale Yarborough won it in 1984.
