New Owner of a an FB
Just recently bought a 1985 Mazda RX7 [FB]
I purchased this vehicle knowing that it was going to be a project car and not a daily.
I can't wait to start restoring this Japanese Classic. I am open to any and all suggestions.
Much Obliged,
Frostee

Yes, Pics will be coming up hopefully by this weekend. I do know some of the vehicles history. I have the documents to support that it has 89,xxx Original Miles. Unfortunately it has been sitting for roughly 20 years. I do plan to fully restore/rebuild. At the moment my first task was to replace the Turn Signal/ Wiper W/ Cruise Control Combination Switches. The head light switch was broken and stuck in the running lights potion. I removed all pieces and found out a piece was broken and the Switch was basically no good. Sad part of the story when I had all the parts laid out my grandfather knocked over one of the many piles of stuff in the garage and it fell onto my Steering Column Cover/Surround and broke to pieces. I am now finding out the hard way that this seems to be one of the Most Rare and Hard to find parts with a 1984-85 FB :'-( I won't let this hold me back I will continue to move forward on this restore and get this Legend back on the road

Yeah, I am hoping to upload more pics by this weekend. I am still getting use to the site and how it works. I have an IG where I've been posting my "Rustee 2 Frostee" Restore/Rebuild. Once I figure out how I will also convert everything here.
