Do they sell other rubber pieces (window weather strips, glass channel)?

They look great, but alas, wont fit my car, just those modern versions, the FBs.

Didnt realize the pedals were different, but apparently they are.

Find one yet? Sorry just saw the message.

I know I have a complete pair from a 85 here somewhere I planned to use in a build one day but not real sure where they are at this moment.

Here is one on Ebay for $40 plus shipping

Item number: 160926910299

Might be the cheapest and quicker way to get one.

Ah yes, another enhancement made to the experimental SA before perfecting the modern sportscar in the FB.

Saved you the trouble, Ray.

Tomorrow night is the May OGTA meet. Any REPUs showing up?

That's right Mike, the SA's came with bare metal pedals.

The genuine rubber pads from Thailand were an upgrade that helped make the FB the icon that it is.

I'll be there with my camera, so you guys take a shower, OK?

Mike they do show the black door seals (attach to the perimeter of the door and seal against the body/door frame)

Tonight is the 1st Tuesday in May. OGTA meeting is tonight at the Tilted Kilt in Buford, GA. Bonus points added tonight for the 12A count... 1/10th point for each rotorhead that shows up.

Ray, that means you can drive flipper and count as 1/10th of a 12A point tonight.

Sorry to come back from the grave so infrequently, this military thing makes life difficult sometimes. Anyone interested in buying my RX4 chassis? Ray knows more about it than I do, seeing as I've never actually seen it in person. I'm willing to work with price. I paid $600 for it, so I'd like most of that back, but my DD BMW is slowly dying, and my motorcycle was stolen (and I had the wrong insurance, so I'm still paying off the loan). Needless to say, I can use the scratch.

Let me know!
Quad

Looking Good Billy, can't wait to see it looking Done!



Quad your RX-4 sits safe and sound in my driveway, nice looking car, minimal rust and lots of original hard-to-find details. I'd be happy to show it to anybody who's interested.

No motor, I didn't see a transmission but there is a drive shaft in the back seat.

Kevin would be able to give a more accurate rundown on the contents and condition.

Quad, are you there?

OGTA 5/7/2013 Meeting 12A count

Since Kristy wasn't able to make it last night, I'm posting the 12A count for last night

5-7-13 OGTA 12A count

1 Old Skool = 2.000 12A's (Jeremy in RX-2)
1 FB's = 1.000 12A's (Mike S.)
0 FC's = 0.000 12A's (I think Ray had an FC part hiding in flipper)
0 FD's = 0.000 12A's (just some previous FD owners and current FD owner)
5 FE's = 0.625 12A's (Tommy, Holly, Luis, Marcos, Levi)

2 Boingers = 0.00 12A's (Ray in flipper, Marco in Bimmer)

SPECIALBONUS 12A POINTS for Rotorheads showing up @0.10 each:
Jeremy, Mike S., Tommy, Holly, Luis with (Anna, & Twin boys), Marcos, Levi, Marco & Ray = 1.200 12A BONUS POINTS

Total 12A count = 4.825
