Are you talking about my crashed SP? If so you are correct,no one has picked it up yet. It is tucked away in my garage collecting dust as I type this.

WA Non Sp Graphics

Here's a couple pix of My Rx3 under graphics construction...

yes I have heard every NEG. comment already,mainly from my wife so please, lets keep an open mind and remember, attention is attention in business, and I always wanted to do this, and.............

I am going to paint the car soon and SP it back to bone stock...

Ohh well, I would not post this if I did not expect a couple people that could not hold back, but some people might see what I am up to...

this thread is so disjointed (and bipolar), it's almost comical.

i fully stand by people's right to do as they wish with their possessions, but i sense that there is passion missing. it's clear you're into old school rotaries, but while i can't put my finger on it, something seems a bit off to me.

at any rate, i hope you achieve whatever it is you are trying to achieve. life is short.

The bonnet scoop (and to a degree the sun-roof) let this down a little, but I see where you are coming from... it "almost" looks like a Katayama style racer from the mid 70's. Remove the Lucky's sign-writing and I would cruise with you :-)

Thats funny, I sold you an SP probably 5-8 years ago. The rusted one here off the kitsap peninsula with no engine, whatever happened to it?

had about 10 since that one, I didn't remember any rust? HaHa....
you had a buddy with the nice wheels on his seven and you had the Turbo (FC & and a few others)?
Still have a few cars today, keep the best ones in my hanger, sell some, keep some.

This one is the daily driver for now... All the stickers are based on real race stickers and all relate to the printing business, having fun with it, but in the early spring I will restore it back to the yellow of its glory, and put it on ebay...

Todays pix!
