Man, I miss my old RX3s...



I had a couple of the '73s, and a '74 (ugly brown, but a nasty fun early 13B), as well as an RX2 and an R100. but the RX3s hold a special place in my heart. of course, when I had them they were dirt cheap and readily avaialble (early-mid '80s). I am literally shocked by how much they cost now.

Here is my 73 RX-2. Not running at the moment. Any dual distributor specialists out here in SoCal to help me get it running again? I'll pay for your time and give you gas money if you make a house call . . .



Here it is with my other old school ride, my 72 Toyota Celica.
