that used to belong to Terry (Fortune Auto) I don't where it is or who has it now
he had brought it down to the starbux meet a couple of times like 2 years ago best paint job I have ever seen on a FD.
Supposedly it had 6 layers of clearcoat that were wet-sanded after easch layer was applied.
Next time he is down there ask him about it and the new FD he and Jenn are working on.

I don't see RX-7 guys going anywhere in particular anywhere and other than Mitchum's shop no else in town is really rotary knowledgable - and even he won't touch a FD.
What do you need to get done?
Because other than ripping into the motor any decent mechanic can work on these cars.
