Hey all,

Tad, 40 year old from Tennessee, living near Seattle WA. I've just picked up my penultimate car, but there's some labor of love standing between staring at it, and driving it.

Salvage certificate from California due to vandalism. I can't quite piece together the story yet. It's missing the ECU, the key doesn't turn the ignition, and I'm told a homeless youth was living in it. 105,000 miles, single turbo conversion, Stance coil overs, other goodies too. Someone once loved this car. Then they didn't, and now it's my turn. I plan to get it running and just drive it and do some track days, keep it as a rotary for a few years and really get to know it. Who knows what the future holds? Excited to dig into my project!

 

Awesome! Can't wait to see the progress!

 

Welcome!! That's a great project you have there!! Glad to hear that you're keeping the rotary engine!! Will look forward to seeing some progress on the car!

 

Welcome to forum. Good to see another RX brought back from the death bed

 

It's got "RIP FD RX7" written on the hatch glass.

RIP? Not on my watch! I'll see this car to 200k.

Thanks for the warm welcome! I've got some more assessing to do, then on the the newbie tech forum.

 

Very nice project you've got, I do love a red FD.

I'm not too far from Bellevue, if you ever need a hand give me a shout!

 

Cant wait to see this tmcome back to life. Great fun project!

 

@XanderCage Thanks a lot! I'm sure we'll meet up some time in the near future. Much appreciated.

Finally getting started on it today!
