saved from the crusher

i'm saving an 84 from the crusher by getting it from a friend of this forum. plans are to do some minimal body work paint it flat black wheels too. its going to be worked on to become more a auto cross car. first things first get it to run. then see about adding things here and there. it'll will be the one of the starting 3 of a performance race team we are putting together. can't wait to get things rolling. my friend is the one who got me into rx-7s so, he will be helping me. i'll be on here looking for parts when i have money.

Good luck with the project.I love to hear of 1st gens being saved from the crusher,especially in New England.If you need any parts give me a shout.I am parting out an 83 LE.If you are not a member already,you should join marx7.org.It is the Massachusetts RX-7 club,but they allow anyone from New England to join with a rotary powered car.Oh,and by the way keep it rotor powered!

Ya, I picked it up as a parts car for a few things and ended up giving him the rolling chassis and all. And ya, I think I would mame him if it had something other then a rotary in it.

I Saved This One From Going To Scca. I'm Tryen To Get This One Registered In New York For The Streets. Its More Fun To Have It In The Streets Than Waiting To Go To A Scca Event. Its Fully Stripped Interior And Motor. Except For The Dash
