Hello all! I've been lurking the last few weeks since purchasing my rx7 trying to diagnose it's various problems but now it's time to reach out because I really want her running the way she should.

The only history that I'm aware of is that the guy that I traded my Chevy K-10 for was; that a guy traded a 240SX shell for it and was able to get it to idle with the choke on and I bought it to do the carb rebuild on it. As for plans oh, I want it to be a fun daily and try and make it as reliable as possible. The guy I got it from said it hopped around from person to person unable to be solved. So I decided I had to be the one to get it up and going.

Welcome to the forum!! The car looks like a good starting point for a restoration! How's the interior?

The interior is all there except for an ashtray and the hatch floor spare cover. The interior is in fantastic condition otherwise except for some slight cracking on the door cards vinyl. I just got into painting cars and I'm looking to expand my skills so I thought this rust free example would be great for me to practice on
