probably not ray. this is what u run into with these cars. some ppl think they've got some kind of old muscle car from the 60s. not saying it isn't valuable considering the condition, i just don't think it's worth THAT much. maybe only to some really diehard rotary collector. bet u couldn't insure it for that.

yeah an 808 would be fine, so long as it's no later than 75. has to have the 4 headlights. that's what i had. as for my budget, i'm just doing good to keep bills paid. i won't have any extra money til tax time. that's why i say compared to me, everyone's rich. i could run across one right now for $100 and i couldn't get it. doesn't matter how cheap i find one, by the time i could come up with the money, someone else would have bought it.

Soooo this happened:
I might type up the whole story later but to summarize it someone slammed on their brakes on a slippery concrete not-really-pavement highway ramp facing downhill on wide tires with a good traction friendly heavy truck that has ABS and I locked up my wheels, slid down the hill and hit them.

I'm completely fine, my neck hurts a tad but I think it's from stressing out over this rather than the actual accident. Luckily the motor and everything else sits so far back I had a nice length of sheetmetal cushion, and all of the hardware that isn't the radiator should be fine.
! I hate to see this. I think I have a body for you - I believe it is white as well! I will check on that.

Yeah, you read my mind. I'm going to be shopping around for either another shell to put my parts in, or a whole 'nother Rx-7 I can drive while I sell all my valuable parts. I would appreciate it if you looked at the body for me, and give me a price and description and such.

The fact of that matter is unfortunately - All R100, RX2, RX3 etc are not cheap anymore!
Actually you can insure it through - Hagerty Insurance.

Well the Australian's, New Zealander's & the Puerto Ricans - sure think they are worth that much. 7 years ago we got $5k for a nice R100 - It has been sold twice since then. When it left the states was the first time $11k and when it arrived in Puerto Rico 15k. This being 7 years ago - could you imagine what it would go for today!

I thought of you because - it has no engine and you could just drop yours right in. I can tell you it is white/burgandy. I think it as an 83 or 84 but I will not know for sure till tomorrow afternoon when I go check it out. I will let you know. I will get you pics also!

Quad, if that SE continues to frustrate you to the point of selling it, how much were you thinking of asking for it? I could try to make your problems my problem.
