CA hello

Hi my name is oscar and I live in the san fernando valley.... I co-own a local body shop and I have been a car fanatic for as long as I can remember... I like all types of cars and I recently purchased a "72 RX2 coupe which im am currently restoring/modifying... I am looking forward to meeting fellow enthusiasts and I welcome all comments ..go bad or indifferent ...

I'll take the indifferent, "hurt feelings" route. There weren't any 1stgen's around that needed saving??

Hey Oscar, thanks for taking the time to register and welcome aboard to RX-7 Club!

It's all good, my man!

One of the fastest car I've ever seen street racing 1/4 mile was a Rx2.
Get some 4x110 Watanabe for it.

hello jspecusa.... i'll probably end up switching out the rear for a ford 9inch rear end... the ford rear end will be able to handle the torque the 350 puts out.... also the stock bolt pattern is very restrictive as far as rim selection

i'll post some pics as soon
