Howdy from Tennessee (Even if im working in Ky)
Howdy from Tennessee (Even if im working in Ky)
Allo' Everyone, Names David. I'm 19 from Jamestown, TN. Just recently got off work in Kentucky as an I&R Technician doing disaster work in Campbellsville, Lebanon and Caneyville. Few close encounters but fairly good work. Now im currently in Mayfield, KY. Working as a Digital Cable installer. Hey, gotta make money :p
Now, As for my FC. When I first arrived back from KY with a fair bit of cash in my Pocket and wanting something besides my Toyota to get around. (Okay, TO be honest. I've always wanted a car... and a FC was always on my mind)
Low and behold, I discovered the currenty Rx7 Sitting back at home sold a town away
A 1988 RX7 Gen 2 GXL NA With around 89k miles.
Just recently took the plunge and purchased my first FC. An 88 GXL.
Now, I've always been a huge fan of drifting since I was younger and certain cars always stuck out to me. The FC Being one of them. Now, Before you all freak out thinking I want to do a Turbo II swap and drift around in a small town. Dont worry, Im fully versed in Tennessee laws and know I cant "V-TEC JUST KICKED IN YO!" Throughout the state. (Lolhonda ref)
My main concern is getting the Rx7 In top shape.
Currently I need to get the Rack & Pinion steering fixed as its a bit iffy and some work on the Transmission (Fairly certain its the Throwout bearing gone bad)
After that, If I still decide I'd like to drift. Im not going to pump the car full of power, Ill just keep her as a reliable Daily Driver/Drifter. If I can survive with an NA and become fairly well versed in it behind the wheel of the NA, I think Ill be better off incase I ever decide to swap.
Also, Sorry about the loooong thread
What can I say
Except, Thanks for taking the time to read :p
