  • Price
    $1,234
    • OBO • Trade
  • Location Appomattox, VA, 24522, USA
  • Condition Used
  • VIN FD3S101154RE303
  • Mileage 42,200
  • Engine Other
  • Drive Type 2WD
  • Transmission Manual
  • Vehicle Type Coupe
  • Exterior Color Black
Description:

*FIRST THING FIRST*  The Price is Negotiable, I am not firm on it, as I am more interested in someone saving it than raping someone's wallet!

This has a Salvage TX Title, it will have to be repaired or turned into a Track Car unless you want to work on a Rebuilt Title.

 With that said, I have a 92 RE Amemiya RX7 Shell up for sale or Trade for Aftermarket Parts, Wheels, Accessories ETC. If you want to Pay cash and Partial trade, that's fine as well, I am open to offers.

I originally bought it for a parts car, then thought about  (what if) I was going to Repair and Tube chassis the front, However I decided to use it for parts instead for my USDM FD. The left rear upper quarter and roof is dented from tree limbs when it was ran into a tree line. The front left corner frame is pretty harshly bent from the tire twisting into the sidemember while steering was locked out to the left and caused it to collapse superstructure from the angle of the ditch.
 
Any frameshop worth their salt can fix this however I don't have the space at my guys shop to wait 6-8 months (plus storage fees) for an available space to open up for the frameshop to pull it out. So it's easier to gut it down to the shell so there is nothing impeding proper repair.

Again, This car is a *Project/Shell Only* and is being sold as such. I hope someone will take this as I would hate to have to send it to the scrapyard as a last resort. I am willing to work with someone who is willing to save it from that fate.

If someone contacts me before I begin tearing it down and wants to pay for it (Less the Engine, Transmission, Exhaust and Driveline) as a Rolling Chassis I am willing to do that as well. 

I've seen burnt engine Rx's selling for 20k+ on Copart and Other Auction Sites. So understand that I will not give it up for dirtcheap as it's worth more in parts than as a whole..

Hit me Up and let's talk, I will entertain all serious inquiries.

Hey man interested in the shell

I’m new to the thread looking to get into an FD for the first time. Me and my brother have had a few tuners and 1000cc crotch rockets we’ve worked on tons but, never anything like this. But, my goal would be to get her back together here in Tampa. If you could contact me directly I would really appreciate it my email is zekerod92@gmail.com shoot me an email and I’ll give you my direct line to get down to the details. Thanks man have a good one.

That is a very early car, judging by the VIN number. I believe Mazda supplied some chassis directly to certain tuners for custom builds. Is this the story of this car?

Might be worth looking into the history some more. It seems it is too early a car to be one of the supplied-to-tuner ones.

But worth looking into none the less.

I wish I knew honestly, I bought it from auction in TX, Brought it home and popped the hood and there was the R.E Amemiya Plates and every single piece on the car is R.E. the JDM Importer/Tuner shop it's sitting at said that it's a legit car, but the damage is considerable. If someone wanted to save it, they could but it would cost about 20k to fullframe tube it and get the bodywork done. But there are a lot of DIY'ers that can likely do it themselves for 1/8th of that.

I have a Silver 93 so the 92 is not really on the priority list, so it would be better for someone to get it and save it. Because I honestly don't have the spare money to throw at Two FDs.

Local guy who knows the RE-A guy personally says that the cars with the RE-A tags are done at the Re-a shop and the tag has an individual VIN number so the work can't be faked.

So this would make that car an very early example of a RE-A tuning icon car.

IMO, best to leave it as is. Put it on a pedestal and charge tourists $25 to take their picture with it.

Apparently the Re-A sideskirts are the most rare parts, with the other parts still somewhat more available.

In any event, remove all the Re-a stuff before crushing and post up the RE-s VIN number plate for $1000 on ebay and see what happens.

So this is one of the Earliest Example Icon Cars, I would assume that would make it worth saving? It can be Fixed, but it takes time and money. Both of which I have, but we have to be sure its worth the time to engage the endeavor.

The Algorithm is weird sometimes, if you are shiny and new it seems like there is a "cool down" period that you can't DM/PM other users until you have enough comments to meet the "Not-A-Bot" algorithm.

I will try messaging you

ok what it looks like is your user settings are not set to receive PMs. Go into your user settings and check the blocks that allow other users to direct message you.

Maybe contact the Re-A guys themselves and see what interest they would have.

Interest in FD as collectable cars is growing very strongly worldwide. Also the whole JDM tuner car fantasy world is expanding.

Therefore, it may be better to leave the car as is, and see if someone wants to add it to their collection.

There is a Japanese ethos of "damaged perfection".

I wonder what the significance of VIN # RE-303. Is it third of a series or 303rd?

If this guy has the front clip, he may also have the A-Pillar cross section.

My friend says the "303" means the 303rd Re-A build.

Pretty sure its a builder tag. Like RE offered a build package and tune. I doubt it's some crazy preproduction tag Mazda gave to RE. Also car manufactures who give to race teams aren't serialized so they can't be sold(legally). Other Japanese tuners do this too.

Oh, OK well then nobody will feel bad for this going the way of the Dodo then. If it's "nothing special" even though it's the same as the one from JDM Palace in CA. Meh, it's just a car anyway, it'll save me the grief of feeling like I'm destroying something special.

If it *IS* special though? You can feel the shame of knowing you played a part in it's destruction.

LOL I would not do that.. it was just a joke, too much trouble trying to fit it and keep it from destroying the undercarriage.

I would get it repaired and put the refreshed Bridgeport Engine back into it.

I think Mazda still makes or has stock of those chassis parts. You or someone could possible rebuild this.

I wish lol I already tried mazdas nationwide network from three sources in VA (hoping to get a different answer) they say the only way to get the particulars I need is a donor car.. unless some random hole in the the wall specialized dealer somewhere has the pieces.

I wish I could get ahold of Ray Crowe, but he's not answering his Facebook messenger.

What about those several clips that were available in Ontario (Canada).

If they have the front clips the may have the other chassis bits as well.

Fly up for cheap. Rent a uhaul.

And run back.

Pick up both clips while you are at it.

Plus whatever other goodies they have lying around.
