PA Hello!

Hey guys my name is Kenny, I'm a long time rotary lover but I was finally able to pick up my dream car recently, an 83 GSL!

Car runs great, sounds great. The mileage is high but as far as I can tell it's been pretty well maintained so hopefully I can give it the long life it deserves!

As of right now I really don't have many modification plans, mainly some cooling mods, fender flares, or maybe a respray but for the time being I couldn't be happier.



Flippy friends

Welcome to the forum!!! The car appears to be in pretty decent shape. What color was the car originally?

Thanks! The body has some small dents and dings but nothing especially bad, rust free also which was my main concern. And originally I think it was Maya Gold metallic, thats at least the color the engine bay still is.

Maya Gold is a great color! Do you plan on repainting it the original color? My 80 Leather Sport is Solar Gold, color code M4...I do like the gold colored 7's as they are unique and not terribly common.

Damn that's gorgeous!!! I was thinking either the original color or just a metallic black to keep with the current look.

Thank you! Maya Gold is a lighter shade of gold than Solar Gold and it looks incredible when the paint is new or taken care of. As for the color, that sir is up to you. If it were mine, I would repaint it the original color as it matches the engine bay and would look amazing!
