I started out in the RX-7 in SS, and then moved up to ASP.

Would've been the smart move to keep things stock, but I just couldn't keep my hands off the rex.

On another note, we should plan a meet of some sort for when the snow's gone. I'll see who's interested on www.manitobamazdaclub.com as well. My car's hibernating with a tank full of gas and she's just waiting to burn it all up

It says irrepairable but from the pics it looks VERY repairable. What is so damaged on it?

Thinking of going with the Mazdaspeed GT-C front end and my scoot hood if Brian can make it fit.

As for selling it, not gonna happen By the way 20B, single turbo FD's are not exactly cheap!
Hey, if the scoot hood doesn't fit let me know, I might take it

lol. Well, it got sold locally to RX7rotary on Heights (forget what he is on here, but I KNOW YOUR OUT THERE!!!), so you'll still get to see it. Somehow I'm pretty sure you'll like what I did instead...
