KS Introductions

Long time lurker, Just bought an 86 sport package that was a single owner before I bought it, 233,000 miles, with no bad rust but it needs a little bodywork. needs to be cleaned up since it has been sitting since the late 90s but was inside and I got it to start right up on old gas with an oil change, a coolant flush, and a new battery. Any recommendations on removing some small dings and dents would be appreciated!

Welcome to the forum. Please share some pictures of your car if you can.

Do some searching for paintless dent removal (PDR) in your area. These guys are wizards with removing dents without doing any paint or serious body work. Most of them are also mobile which is super convenient.

Congrats and welcome. My 1st RX-7 was an 86 on phone dials too. It started the obsession, haha.

Got any pics?

Welcome to the forum! The car looks really nice given the mileage! Do you know any of the car's history?
