Talking First timer here from Alabama.

Here is a quick ramble about myself.

I'm sure you guessed my name is Mike.

I'm 26.

7yr Army vet.

Cummins owner

I have always loved the FD. Now is a time in my life when I'm able to pursue my heart and get an FD. I recently bought a roller.









A previous owner thought it would be cool to spray paint the red with black.
I am slowly bring back the bright red interior back. They even painted the door panels.

They can needs quite a bit of work before it will be road ready. I plan on going 20B " I will just buy off Ebay and rebuild."


Anyways, I have been lurking around for quite some time for a shell and gathering some knowledge. I hope to bring some knowledge to the forum as time passes since I have learned quite a bit just lurking around.

Just a few more pictures. When I picked the car up, no interior panel was in place, it was just tossed the car. This is all temporary, I wiped off all the dust and sat everything in place to keep it looking half way decent and keep me motivated. The brake lines are not hooked up. The car needs an ABS delete, I will be buying from Alex R for this.

Doesn't matter... This car is quite the secret for most. no one I know or in my area is on here. So I joined up and made an intro thread so I can buy parts.

This is why I'm not giving a true location, only a state. I will stay discreet..

I don't have to give my location to buy parts. I can meet people "which I normally do" or I have shipped. and if I have parts shipped, that person is too far to care about and they don't ask questions to why I'm buying thier parts.. any reason your trying to bust my chops for keeping my build a secret until its finished?

For some reason I don't think you can keep an RX7 a secret in Alabama very long.Sooner or later someone will hear it and go "WTF is that?"..lol!
I bring my Rotary to Car shows to watch the look on people's faces when I open the hood.
They look inside the engine bay and get that Frazzled look..can't figure out what it is!
I put a MSD on the car and a Mustang guy called me a "wiring genius"..(if he only knew.!)

Once the car is complete and driving then I won't care. but the build is staying hush hush as much as possible. I jsut needed an account on here incase I run into tech difficulties or need to buy stuff. I can't PM or comment on For Sale threads without an account.
