sweet ride man. congrats.

 

Yes, that's what "open" means. None of the RX-3SP's came from the factory with an LSD.

 

Just to add in.

The SP's came with short pinion shaft which will allow you to upgrade to an 81-83 GSL 3rd member. In addition, the SP version came with thicker driveshaft.

The non-SP's 3rd member can be upgraded also, just like the SP, but since it has long-pinion, you will need to extend or mod the driveshaft.


AND FINALLY, my buddy will be selling his 73 RX-3 in the next few months. So if anyone is interested, let me know. This car is in SOCAL.

 

yet another 3 out of reach. really sux living on the east coast. looks like i'll never get another rx3.

 

I have some RX-3 SP side louvers. I will sell them for the right price.

 

Jerry, I pm'd you.

 

Thanks to Arnel, here's some pictures...finally.

 

Here's sum mo' guys.




My son is thoroughly enjoying himself! A rotorhead in training.

 

Good to see, I'm sure that this will become the next father and son project. I just wish my uncle/dad would've brought home a rotary like that one day.

congrats on the car and good luck.

keep us posted

 

Since I know how to post pics now, thought you might like to see some pics of my RX2:

 

Here's some interior shots:



Old Skool even down to my K-Swiss:



Original AM radio, power antennae and clock still work







One last shot:



Nuthin but Old Skool for me.

 

Thats funny.

I live in WA state and bought three SP's in CA this year and you live there and buy one up here.....

I even picked up a silver one last month in San Jose!!!!and a blue one and a yellow one! In fact all in the San jose area... and three orange ones in WA state.

All 1977's, all bought this year.

I sell the SP stripe kit if you need a perfect repro for your car...... let me know...

 

Oh yea, nice score....


they are getting harder to find evry day....


if I would of seen it,



it would of been mine!

 

So how many SP's do you have???

 

So Markeddief, I saw that in one of your pictures there was a cop car behind the Rx2. Were you getting pulled over, or are you (or one of your neighbors) a cop? By the way, those are some great looking cars. I could only hope I have some old school rotaries in my garage when I buy my own house, at least that don't end in the number 7.

 

Very nice.

I think some people underestimate what it's like to not really ever have a Dad figure around. You miss out on a lot of things...

Enjoy all three man.

 

looks like you need some por 15 in that engine bay, and maybe a little frame rail welding
but you found some nice cars, I can't wait to see more pics

 

Let's see, how should I answer that one? Well let me put it this way, I wasn't getting pulled over Ü. Look closely at the rest of the pics and tell me what you think. Hint: My profile lists, "You don't want to know." where it asks your occupation.

 

Thanks Lex. God, Family, and Old School Rotaries in that order. I plan to make the most out of all of them.
Peace!

 

Thanks! What's "por 15"? I'm trying to find someone reputable to do a resto or at least seriously clean up the body on the SP. I was beginning to wonder if I bit off more rust than I can chew. What do you think?

good stuff

 

mark I have some parking tickets...can you take care of it????

 

Yeah, Arnel. My lone SP needs an identical twin; it's lonely. You want to work something out? LOL

 

I see. Thanks.
Can anyone recommend someone good in Cali to take care of the rust removal, body work and paint on the SP?

 

Mark,
