middlane

Robin from Eugene Or. First time owner of a gen 1 - rx7 (84') This one's very straight and clean. No dings or cracked glass ect... Completely stock - left in someone's garage for 10+ yrs. Worst of it is that much of the interior is dried out and degraded.

I work as a mechanic and fleet manager for a forestry contracting company that originated as a tree planting collective in the 70's. We do remote site forestry contracting (construction), wetland mitigation and also run several fighting crews along w/engine support.

The rx7 was 'affordable' and was intended to serve as a fun way to save on fuel costs, and keep me active just getting in and out of it. With any luck it'll remain a relatively cost effective purchase that I can enjoy getting to know and tinker with.

I look forward to reading the many thoughtful and interesting threads and discussions others have to say about this particular 'quirky' sports car.

Thanks!

Hey Robin!
I'm Chris, I'm also here in Eugene. New owner to a second gen vert.

Never have I been a 'member' of much of anything. Mostly 'joined' so as to glean how-to tips and try to figure out where to find basic parts etc...

Learning the jargon, I suppose 'vert' relates to convertible rather than some sort of vertical engine or body style. (Sorry, I am completely green w/this scene.)

Thanks for the reply

Happy motoring...

Nice car, and not so quirky, really. The most reliable car ever built, I think. Enjoy!
