has no motor/tranny but i've already got the turbo II tranny, and 13b-rew that's getting built for it, plan on making it what it once was, street/strip monster from what many ppl rember it by, from what the owner has said along with many other ppl that know the owner, the car was runnin in the 9's street legal automatic and straight as an arrow, just need to find some parts here and there such as the dash pad, front window trim and passanger rear 1/4 window badge for the outside, still has pretty good paint also on 90% of the car(pearl white), still has soft untorn rear seats, good door pannels and carpet, here are some pic's, sorry for the poor poor quality pics, it's my camera phone

 

I have 2 front seats that need reuphostering if your interested let me know! mannymazda@earthlink.net

naw not tubed, has a 10point cage, u seen it there before or somethin? at fuego's?

 

Great find.. The trim, I have it on the SP I am parting out..

 

i remember that car. the guy selling it had sent me an email about it back when i was looking for one. i think it was in FL for like $1500.

 

nice find. looks like you've got some work ahead of you, but it doesn't seem as bad as some cars i've seen people start with. you're pretty lucky.

 

congrats to a new RX-3 member.

 

In those pics the rx3looks pretty bad but in real life that thing is in good conditions. Just like any car that has been sitting for a while the paint will wear off. All it really needs is body work and acouple of other little ****. "La Negra"

 

Nice find!

 

Nice find got a lot of home work ahead of you. Good luck!

 

Nice car!

That's pretty close to how mine will look next year hopefully!

What's the story with the FD beside it?

 

Nice, what did you give for it?

 

la negra? is that a starlet, microtech powered?

 

Does he have anymore old cars like that?

 

is LUPE trying to get a piece of old school action???

 

I've been looking for awhile

 

there's a couple here in CA. a good chunk in the socal area. check out Los Angeles or surrounding area craigslist or cars.com.

 

I just checked craigslist and nothing.

 

What Lupe did with his FD almost makes me scared shitless for what he would do with an old skool rotary.

And congratulations on the Rx3. I hope to own one someday as well.

 

can you say 8 second rx3 LUPE car ?? haha beast on wheels

 

thnx for the replies guy's, i traded my gsl for it and some cash, 3rd gen rx7 next to it is his also, race use only rollin chassis, he has a early 80's (punto8, shoebox) corolla for sale, clean body, no motor/trans with good title....and la negra is a black 12a turbo 1st gen rx7 from the central florida area

 

yeah,that rings a bell on la negra,i heard it runs 11's and its tuned by francho.
