I bought a very nice '81 GSL with a good pedigree of ownership, and I'm the fourth owner. At acquisition, it had 64,227, with only 10, 000 miles since' 91. I put 1,700 miles on it in 3 weeks. Lots of fun factor with these rotaries.
My son bought his one-owner '81 S two days prior. I think he's on this forum somewhere.

 

Welcome!

Sounds nice. That is cool that you and your son both enjoy 1st gens.

Let's see some pics!

Here are a couple, both taken on the day we brought them home:

 

Body looks really good for a first gen. Gotta take the car out to pittsburgh international race complex in the summer. Shouldn't be to far of a drive.

 

Mine is 99.99% rust-free. My son's has some minor rust issues that we'll be addressing when his spring semester at college is done. Both are running great.
Racetrack? No. Spirited driving on serpentine country roads? Absolutely!

 

Great looking cars, you don't find to many of them where I live in that great of shape.

 

I first got a glimpse of these cars back when the old man (father) raced SCCA in the late 1990's. Believe they ran in ITA class when I first saw them. haha serpentine roads are just like a track
