What's up guys? We need to have some kind of meet before this winter.

I have been working on a blue 91 vert that a friend wants to sell. If you know anyone that wants one let me know. It will be a good car when I'm done.

How are we going to sort it out? are there other guys we want to meet up with on the way? or just one main meet up spot and then head out?

You know I am not entirely sure... as Me and a couple other Rotary guys are heading down on Thursday morning to get a car tuned before 7stock. So I won't be joining the main caravan.

try the mini cooper wreckers out in Rancho, they used to have a decent stock of rotary cars but in recent years they have been dwindling their inventory(used to be mazda recyclers).

back about 5-8 years ago they had about 6 FDs and about a dozen FCs or so. they do internet sales also so they may have parted them all out by now and not restocked.

Hello,

Been running around today getting everything settled for my wife's new FD.

Smog, oil change, alignment.

At least that's a start. First time with a Mazda so I'm glad this forum is here. Great info!

Jim
