Man, that's a little rough! My 7 has always run, and if your 7 runs, why would sit in it and pretend...drive it!! And if it doesn't run...make it run! Sorry, but I think I deserve my 7...PERIOD! Er, I mean my 7's!

I have no funds, just get your hands dirty and DIY, I bought a couple of parts cars for about $200 and my two drivers cost me about $300 each, from the four I've got enough parts to keep them running with minimum expense.

Four FBs $1K, fun factor Priceless.....

Yeah we're on the same boat.

I recently turned 18 (nov.) and got my provisional lisence back in september, so I'm still a bit young.

I got my rx-7 about 4 and a half years ago (when I was a freshman in h-s) and it was a total junker. So after all the lovin I've given her I've started to drive her this past summer and I must say...she paid me back for every cent and hour I put into her with all the jaw drops, crapped pants, and pure sports car preformance (gotta love the no cupholders thing) I've gotten and shown in these past couple of months.

I <3 you Veronica
Your owner/lover,

Well I wasn't directly pointing you out but some of us can't get our hands on parts cars. It took me a combination of two carbs to get mine fired up. Then took alot more to get it running half decent. Just takes time and money
