French rx7 User with SA22C

hello,

I'm a French rx7 user.

In first, sorry for my English ... no problem for read but for write

I have a RX7 SA22C 1979 for four months.

I bought it for the purpose to renovate it as it was there 34 years.

I joined your community because in France we do not have a lot of SA and therefore very few people to be able to rehabilitate.

There remains more than 5 SA operating in the country and therefore few parts available ...

Thanks to your forum I can really start renovation

Good luck! I myself just got ahold of an SA22, though I'm still debating on its build fate.

thank you,

regarding my SA22C she does not have much work to do, especially outside where you have to redo the paint and rust removal.

The interior is not too bad, the seats will be redone by a saddler but I still miss the console radio that a hole after adding a lousy radio ...

Hello,

my rx7 is paused because I have trouble finding a few rooms in France ...

body repairer must repaint me completely and remove the rust but slow to give me a date ... and I miss the mirrors (the US who are prettier than the EU)

I had to make a presentation at the Le Mans Classic, but it will not be ready on time ...

for here is the news ... 2 and a half years and I have not moved ... snif
