Look up afgmoto1978 his build thread is great, and has a lot of good info.
I meet afgmoto1978 at grass valley once. That is a serious rx7 owner!
I have been thinking about a single conversion once all my bugs are worked out!

one issued i ran into is, When it rained. the Passenger side floor bored would always get soaked...

turned out to be the gasket that holds a bolt for the little grill under the windshield, was bad.




nothing like silicone to fix that ..

no more rain water in the cabin
