I figured it was worth a shot my dad and I went down pretty far into GA to buy a RX3 pretty cheap. The RX3 is blue and has plenty of racing stickers on it IMSA, SCCA, Road Atlanta. When we picked it up it was missing the bumpers and grill and had some fat slicks all the way around.

I would love to find some more info about this RX3 where it raced, what class was it built by somebody cool those types of thing. I will post up some pictures soon!!

 

Did it come with a log book?

 

Pictures would help

 

Yea no log book..I'm working on getting some pictures of it from my dad

 

check with Mazmart

 

Ok so I got some pictures today. The car is a 72 and didnt find anything with names on it inside the car but dad is going to check the tittle for a name of the previous owner. On with the pics

 

Very Nice!!! it doesnt look like a race car to me???

 

I agree.... doesn't look like a race car. It has full interior.. no roll cage... Also I spot a Cosmo in the back ground

 

Yes the interior and lack of a cage are a little odd but it did come with slicks on it and racing stickers on it. so maybe the old owner was just a gay ricer idk?
Yes that is a cosmo My father and I have a pretty good collection going
4 cosmos
1 RX-3
3 REPUs
3 1st gens
1 2nd turbo

 

Looks like just a fan's car. Maybe a corner worker etc. Might have been auto-x'd in a Prepared class that allowed slicks or they might have just been near the car and were thrown in the deal at some point.

Definately not a race car for the track without a cage.

 

What part of Georgia did it come from? I may know someone who owned it... I lived in Georgia for 30 years.

 

How did we not find that car Nick

 

son of a bitch how do u ppl keep finding these things?

 

I bet it was one of Greg Gurden's hidden gems...

 

We actually bought the RX3 little over a year ago, just havnt done anything with it yet..Parts have been real hard to locate parts that affordable.
I cant remember what part of GA we were in but I know we were pretty close to TN I would say within 20 miles.

 

Looks good. Any updates here?

 

Probably a club racer/hillclimb/solo car.

Cages generally aren't required on fixed roof cars if there isn't another car on the course to punt you off or t-bone you when you spin.
