Picked up and 88 Vert Yesterday!

After the fiasco with the other one, I picked up a really nice 88 Vert yesterday for $2500. Just had to share!
I'll try to post links to some pics:

Nice looking car! Welcome to the vert club! One of the most fun RX7's to drive IMHO. I hope you enjoy it, and stay on top of the maintenance. How many miles? manual or auto?

Yes, it's an not and. I must have been typing too fast.

It's a manual with 107K on it. Newer top, new exhaust w/cat. converter, new struts, master cylinder, brakes, thermostat, etc....
Needs a hub cap, WW switch, pass. window switch, and a windshield.
And a good cleaning, which I have been giving it!

Check Icemark Electronics for the electrical stuff and the For Sale section for the same and/or everything else. Nice that all the other stuff has been done. No matter what everyone else says Verts are a blast to own and drive. They handle very well and are fast enough to have lots of fun with.

Hey, thanks for the heads up on Icemark. I just checked it out, and $50 is pretty good for a rebuild on the wiper switch!

The BBS caps are on eBay all the time. No worries there.
I love driving mine too, when the sun makes a rare appearance here.
