First car ever a 1979 sa rx7
Hi I'm Shane.So i just got my first car ever with 90k miles and no rust ,sat in arizona but now in ohio... only 2 owners but it need allot of tlc and the fact that this is my first car and i barley know anything about cars so it will be a handful but im ready to learn now. So far ive made a list of everything that i thinks need to be done to bring it back to full life. haha.
Fluid changes on everything ...
New alternator
spark plugs
oil sensor
fix electrical problem lights wont go in and out also the defogger wont work
speed meter not working right as it says im going 130 but really im going 30
idle problem were i cant stay in idle when i first start up with out choke and some times stalls at lights or when i stop.
New dash its cracked
new seats they are roted
new weather striping
new paint job
re doing the undercoat
cleaning the engine parts to look clean :]
That so far is my long long list of what i think need to be done basically restoring the car slowly cause atm i barley know what to do with half of my problems and i guarantee there are many more but i will keep updated weekly with pictures and
would love advice :]
Currently 200 miles on my journey of driveing my baby-
