First and foremost, congratulations and welcome to the forum. There's not many cars that have the type of impact to draw you back in after 30 years, with the RX7 being one of them. My favorite interaction with people when they complement the car is the folks who were of age when this car was new. Quite a few of the folks who stop me owned one so many years ago, whether it had been a first, second, or third. One guy even showed me picture of him and his first born son sitting on the hood of his first gen RX7 back in 1984...and his son still has it!

Nice collection of toys! Pics of the 7 would be nice, pics of all the toys would make me even more jealous.

For what I know the last time the car was on the road was 2000. Last owner did fuel tank, fuel filter, brake master cylinder. I bought the car non running for a fair price and I did new brake pads, slave and master for the clutch. put gas!! in the tank, tune up and it's running. Plans?? 15 by 7 3 piece watanabe wheels, ( dont know size ) coil overs, front and rear sway bars.

Wow, the car looks to be in great shape overall!! Very nice to see another original SE! I know you're going to modify it, but its nice to see how beautiful the car is now as it sits.
