Question 1st Gen RX-7's/ who works on'em ?

I'm out here on the west coast, Sacramento, CA
Trying to find people who work on these MAZDA's is tough, at least for me. Ive had good Mech's in the past, but lost track of them thru time lapse. If I'm trying to restore my car, and don't have everything to do that, what are my options!!!!!!
Passing the dreaded "SMOG" thing seems to be what has most people afraid of having anything to do with these really very inexpensive sports cars.
Personally, I feel that if the car runs like SHOWROOM, brand new condition, they're as good or better than some of the stuff coming out 2008, yet, getting in touch with the KNOW HOW is................................. tuff, any feed back here

All Shaun's babies. 79 SA (pictured in my avatar. needs a ton of work and will be changed back to spark yellow before it's through). 72 RX2. 77 REPU (just got worked on). 88 convertible (FC). And an FD. There was a sweet deuce in a wrecking yard that he found, but the evil crusher got it first. There were some other REPUs, but he got rid of them over the years.
