FL Been a WHILE.. Picked up a 91 turbo

Well, ive owned quite a few Rx7's. They have since come and gone like the wind. My last build got destroyed during Hurricane Irma last year. A huge Oak tree made its jome on top of my 90 turbo vert. Since then ive been saving a lil coin to go towards my next Rx7.
Welp, fast forward to about a month ago i found a pretty good deal on FB Marketplace.
So i picked up a 91. Not sure if its a GTU or not, but it definitely didnt start life as a turbo car. Originally red,but was repainted a maroonish color. Paint is in terrible condition,but all in all the car isnt half bad for what i picked it up for. I have been slowly messing with it as i can. Work and my kids' sports slow down the process a bit
Once i brought it home i ripped out the carpet, seats, and other interior items. I habe collected a few parts and am just now figuring out how difficult some other parts are to find. I dont remember it being that hard to find.
Anyways, i will post the pics that i have for now and continue updating.
Thanks for looking.

Picking up the car from Sebring,FL.







Installed a RB rear sway bar while i had it up in the air.


Rotors look old bc they are, but they have 0 miles on them.

Cleaned up the old carpet i had laying around. Not too bad.

Both seats went in.. Driver side has seen its better days but will do for now.


The deflector looked terrible from sitting all these years. So i sanded it and stuck the stickerbomb vinyl on it. Dont judge me.lol

What the interior used to look like.
