HI. please post.

hi everyone. i am new to the rx7 world. i love the 1st gen rx7 more than all the others. i bought an 84 GSL-SE RX7 and loved it. i was wanting to make it the nicest car ever. i was in the process of fixing it up when i flipped it . this is the most stupid thing i have ever done... i hope it is still ok for me to be on this message board. i live in Tennessee and i am currently looking for another RX7. i would love for it to be the same model as my first one but i will take what i can get. i am a college student and i am limited on money. i bought my last one for 1000 and put another 1000 in it before i flipped it. if you can help me please tell me. i have pictures in the before and after pictures of my car but if you love the RX7 as much as i do then you will not want to see the after pictures...

Best way is to just post around the New members section, comment on what other people say etc. Sucks about your car, can I see the before pics? I'm on the lookout for a FB or FC right now and I'm curious about what kind of car you can get for a grand since I'm also in college and limited on funds.

If you're looking for a new car the classifieds on this site are great, lots of deals

also keep an eye on your local craigslist
JEH being in TN means you're in some good company
you have one of main rotary rebuilders on the east coast in your state
checkout www.rotaryresurrection.com if you start looking into second or third gens

with a quick search
