nice car dude, looks heaps clean! this is a good place to learn about anything rx7 related as you probably already know. i've heard on rx-7's that haven't been driven a lot, the apex seals can stick so be careful but other than that, that car would be a dream come true for alot of members on here.
good luck

I love the look of her stock, but im going to drop her on a nice set of wheels, Cat back, and maybe a few other things, but i plan to keep all original parts in case i want to restore her back to the original look sometime in the future.







That is also my Monte Carlo SS which im currently selling. Shes beautiful, but has been a curse since purchase.

Very nice example. Did you pick it up from an ad? I'm always curious how folks ultimately found the car.

hmmm Sounds like mini story time?
Well, in the last pick you see my Monte. Well that car has been nothing but a broken money pit. and i finally saved up a good amount of money. I was on my way to check out a Focus SVT down south and i took the wrong turn off the main road and ended up in a neighborhood. On my way out i saw a guy open his garage to see this Rx7 with a for sale sign up. Thinking that this car was beat up and over priced i continued going. After checking out the junker of a SVT. I went home and found this rx7 listed on auto trader. Saw the low miles, saw it was in great shape and decided i had to give it a shot. A few days later it sits in my garage.

Nice, I've done that when I really didn't want to deal with the owner right then. Usually you can find the car listed somewhere.
