I pick up this car a few months back. I purchased it with the intent to part it out. But when the car came in the body was in alot better shape than I expected. Since I already own a R100, RX2 and a RX3 SP. I sold it to my brother. Plans are to swap the 616 front suspension to a RX2 and rotary swap it. Very early car. Build date is 1/71 with stock color being B5 galaic silver.

 

Nice find, good luck with the rebuild.

 

man your good at sniffing out these things!!! congrats brother

 

Thanks Nick. A good friend gave me the lead on it. Hopefully will make some progress this winter.

 

What an awesome find… love the B5 color!! What are the plans for the body?

 

We're keeping it the original color on it. Great thing is it came with 71 hood and interior. That the plan at the moment. But things could change.

 

I've always wanted to do a Speed3 swap to a 616, just do be different haha.

 

Yeah. I could see were that make sense and sounds fun. But were making it a rotary. Just more fun than boring pistons
