Looking for a REPU to buy.

Hey guys, I've been thinking about getting anouther Repu. I'm looking for something that could need an engine, or is completely new through out. I'd like something that is 80%+ already finished....but i'm allways willing to take a look. Price will depend apon condition. One thing I'm not looking for is a rust bucket. I prefere a 74, but any year will do.

Please e-mail pictures to Blackrx7@aol.com

Later, CJ

I have a 74 that I'll sell you. However, it is somewhat of a rust bucket. I'll send you some pictures of it anyway.

I e-mailed you back.

Thanks for the pictures. Just to let everyone know, I don't mind surface rust, but no body panels, fenders, cabs etc. falling off or major body work.

My plan is to do some paint work, interior work (If need be.) give the truck a realy quick once over, and use it for a daily driver until we get the Rx-8 paid off....then I was kinda thinking about a single turbo setup kinda like my FD. Or maybe a N/A 3 rotor....have'nt realy decided. But, just want a Repu again. I miss my old 74 with the peripheral in it...and would'nt mind picking up anouther.

Later, CJ

Thanks guys for the interest. I've honestly had more e-mails than I thought possiable. I'm taking a look at a 74 with 2500 miles on a GSL-SE reman (with the injection still working.) turbo II tranny, and a bunch of other stuff. I'm thinking that this will probably be the one. Needs some paint but other than that, is pretty good to go.

Does anyone know the name/code of the green factory color? I'd like to paint it the same color as my old 74, but my wife says she wants green. O-well.

Anyways, If anyone else is looking for a truck I can get you guys pointed in the right directioin. Some of the better ones...

Yellow 75 with a 4spd. Nees some ignition work, but ran fine other than that. $500.

Blake Qualley (Pinepple Racing) has one that needs to put together, with the possiability of a new engine/motec/IDA style injection system. Very cool! E-mail blake@pineapple for details and price.

Rickrx7 has a green automatic. Needs some work, but is worth restoring. $500.

Hey guys, even though I'm 99% shure i'm going to buy this repu, you guys should
post pics of your own repus. (Even if they are'nt for sale.)

My old truck...http://www.sdsefi.com/features/may00mazda.htm

Mines in pretty bad shape. Hasn't been run in a long time as we use the F350 for most of the work loads now.

Well he's been trying to track me down to show me the new Modified Magazine... lol I'm sure he'll come waltzing into the office one of these days. He's practically a stalker. How far are you willing to go for a REPU? I can't remember if the guy he knows has a B series pickup with a rotary or an older REPU... I think it's an older one... We'll see.

CJ,

My stalker came by the office a couple days ago as I said he most likely would. Asked him about the pick-up. It's a 1988 B series with a rotary and it's in pieces... Sorry. I know it's not what you're looking for
