Proud new owner of an 83 and 85 RX7

Just purchased a couple of old RX7's, The 1983 is distant to be a parts car for the 85. The 85 was previously used as an SCCA spec race car. The goal is to use it for a few lemons races then built it into a champ car. Haven't really worked on rotaries at all so I am sure there is a lot a knowledge to be had from other posts. If I get a little more time I may try to set up a build post.

I got them from two different people about a week apart. I found the 85, it has been sitting for almost 10 years so I knew it would need some work, and with plans to use it as a race car there would been a need for extra parts, so I kept looking around and found a running/driving 83 for $800 and figured it would have enough usable stuff to be worth the price.
