Description:

I have a 1985 GS 1st Gen RX-7 that has been swapped with a Japanese 13BT S5 TII engine that I am unfortunately looking to sell.  Life circumstances have changed since when I first purchased the car.  I completed this swap back in 2010, and have driven the car on weekends mainly since then. The car has been in one front-end low speed accident, no frame damage but the light housings and hood do not sit 100% flush, I just leave the headlights "up." The front bumper cover and lower valence have been replaced.  The turn signals do not work, which is common for the electrical for the steering column to stop working, I have just not fixed/replaced it.  There is roughly 180k miles on the chassis, unknown on the motor as it's from Japan - but I would guess 40k-50k. I purchased the motor from Japan2LA on the forums back in 2009.

The transmission has been out for over a year now, as I started a clutch change and life circumstances have kept me from finishing the job.  I am not looking to part out the vehicle or sell individual parts.  I am offering a great deal on a car with several modifications and some additional parts.  Buyer will need to bring a trailer to move the vehicle and parts.

Here are some links in the forum throughout the years of the progress on the car, including pictures. Build thread (https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generati...i-swap-900055/) , fiber glass flares and C7 carbon fiber spoiler (https://www.rx7club.com/1st-generati...poiler-987812/), Riken mesh wheels (https://www.rx7club.com/1st-gen-gene...page2/) I can take other pictures or answer questions as needed, I am sure I missing details.
