Sorry for the reason you sold the last one. But, this is fast comeback, for bigger and better things . Is it going to be painted yellow?

Ernie if you are running a full tube race car you do not need an RX7 to start with. Sell me this one let me build a street car and use your money to buy a fiberglass body and chassis to build your full tube car
