Crashed my 7 yesterday

Well guys I did it this time. I was hallin' down a four lane connector rd and a guy was walking his dog. I swurved to miss him ( and i did) oversteered lost it, went over the median and into a parked car. Luckily both the passenger and I walked away with only scratches. But the car is totaled and i only had liability because my parents made a mistake when they put insurance on it and i had yet to correct it. So the car is mine. It has a clean title because the insurance company was not involved. If anyone wants to buy the title off of me I will be glad to sell it. I'm also looking to part it out. But you guys have to pm me on what you want and price I have an offer for $4500 as it is. I've got a set of 18" konig verdicts on it that can go. Only way has a scratch on it. I also have a set of stock wheels from it. The engine and turbo and tranny are all fine and run great. The front suspension is probley still good the only thing that isn't is ok is the back bumper. I also have a pettit alum ast, dp, racing beat cb, boost gauge, pod, autometer a/f gauge. Apex turbo timer with harness. All the interrior is for sale too. The car was a 93 r1 with black interior. BTW i got a ticket for wreckless driving. Sucks. Goodbye rex i loved you so.

I will take all the passenger side door handle if you going to be selling interior stuff. If you dont want to just sell the handle I will buy the whole plastic part also. I am talking about the hand grip that brakes on everyone. But maybe yours is broken too, if its not PM me, you got yourself a buyer, oh and if its black.

Sign me up for the dp. What brand and how many miles since installation? I've got Paypal waiting......and I'll pay for packing and shipping - all you need to do is drop if off with my address. PM me.

Sorry to hear about the wreck, but the good thing is you're ok. Cars come and go......

Thanks,

Ron

Oh, I'll take the RB cat back also if it's a dual tip and no damage or scratches. I'll need several pics to close the deal.

Thanks.

Ron

You should sue the person with the dog. If a woman can sue McDonald's for making coffee hot, I'm sure you can win this one easy.

Sorry to hear that, glad you are ok. How did you manage to get screwed with a careless and wreckless? Were you driving normal or actually driving too fast?

I would assume he was speading, since he admitted to "hallin' down" the road. Got what he deserved imo, too bad it was at the expense of an RX7. Atleast your alright, and this will benefit a few people here it seems.

How badly is it damaged in the rear? There's been alot of perfectly repairable RX-7s getting parted out due to blown engines or relatively minor accident damage. Go get an estimate from a body-shop if it's not TOO bad. Pics would help.
