After i sold my bridge turbo SA and my GSLSE I got the itch for another RX7 this time i bought a 90 GTU with a T2 engine with a bad paint and massive exhaust leak. 1st thing i did remove engine to fix the broken studs and now the car is at body shop getting surgery.

Nice base to start with. What are your plans for it?

Mind if I ask how much the respray cost? The paint on my car is awful, but can't really afford a super expensive paint job.

Boriquaguerrero 03-31-14 01:14 PM
it was expensive $3.500

A few miles down the road in Denver, $3500 would be on the low end for a good quality, same color spray job.
My quotes were more in the $5k range.

Looks pretty.

I was bummed that I sold the wheels but I am glad they went to a good home. Once I get back from my trip to Mexico, we Colorado FC owners should have a small meet in the springs. :icon_tup:
