NE Old but still alive in my '88 red convertible

Hi! My name is Arch, I'm semi-retired, and I have a 1988 RX7 Convertible. It has 104K on it and I am the second owner. The vehicle has been here in Omaha since new, has never seen snow or salt and is completely original including wheels and center caps--so I consider myself very fortunate. It came with the original window sticker and all receipts. Since I bought it, I've put in new original-type perforated leather and a matching leather shift boot, rebuilt the shifter, replaced one of the radiator hoses, recharged the A/C, and replaced the power antennae. I've got other improvements I'd like to make, but as they say, these things take time.

Yup

I'm glad somebody else feels my pain. Besides our daily drivers and the RX7 we have a '56 Chevy show truck and an '87 Mustang GT 5.0 5 spd convert. Retired? Probably not.
