anyone have any thoughts of what this civic may be worth? would it be worth trading my 93 FD with boosting problems? and a prior salvage?

Wow, this thread needs some life. Where are all of the Iowa guys? Still recovering from the meet?

Here's the report, there are no rx7's in Israel, but there are several in NYC as well as one in Canada.

It was actually surprisingly calm the entire time we were there. There was another rocket attack in a town we had passed through while we were on the plane back, though. We went to one of the outposts on the Lebanon border, and having seen what they've got going there, and meeting the soldiers and whatnot, I'm pretty sure no one's getting past them.

Recovering from the meet....yea, right..what a farce. The people that were there were great, and it was nice to meet trochoid in person and see his 1st gen beast, but I was there 3 1/2 hours and a grand total of 5 cars showed up (including my own).

I thought it was kinda funny how everyone bitched about driving on gravel when the meet was at Erics house, and then to make everyone happy we had the meet at the pavillion and even less people showed up. We had buns and charcoal but no meat...

Thanks all that signed up to bring something and then decided not to show up.

Yea, we need to get a meet going. Was cool to meet Steve and his girlfriend yesterday and look at a couple RX-7's. And if we have it on or after Sept. 16th, I can bring my own beer! Then Eric won't have to worry about keeping me away from the booze. lol

Mine's running and drivable again! Spent the day today replacing the front hubs/bearings, and putting on some used struts/springs that are better than what they're replacing. So it's highway-capable again!

I'd be clear for a bit on 7/7/07, but... honestly, with work lately (freelance web dev), I'm really busy. I wouldn't be able to make it over to eastern Iowa, but something in central Iowa might work. There's a Mustang club autocross on 7/8 at the Marshalltown gokart track that I'll be at - that's a fun event.

Car's not really running well enough to make it anywhere tomorrow, neither is the re5. Sucks, too.
