RX-7s in junkyards

Saw a thread like this in the west region forum.

As of now-

Clearwater LKQ has a 1987 SE, gold w/ red interior

Tampa LKQ has an 86 Base, tornado silver (charcoal) w/ red interior, auto trans.
88 vert, red w/ grey interior
88 SE, non OEM color blue w/ blue interior

That's all for now, hopefully this thread will catch on

I can personally vouch that the 88 chameleon like color is missing its passenger side fender and the gray 86 is missing both of its doors. Ask me how I know. And the fenders on the 86 may be slightly FUBARed. In my defense, they had already pinched the bottoms of them when they picked the car up. I had a limited amount of time to pull the doors and pulling the front bumper and fenders was not budgeted into that time frame. I'll apologize in advance to anyone that may have found those useful.

And I'll take credit for pulling the engine from all those cars, except the chameleon '88 lol

ALSO!!! I think it'd be a good idea to have lists of things that people are looking for from the cars, and have this thread looked up via cell phone in the junkyard
and see what can be pulled to help out someone who's too far from the yard to get the parts themselves.

The 87 is white with blue interior but its pretty picked over

The 86 was in great shape when I saw it a couple weeks ago. Grey exterior with red interior. Engine looks to be in good shape.

Dang dude you should go back and get all of the drive train to at least flip it on here or something, just to ensure it's still "useable" & doesn't go to the crusher! Good find!
