**** Car will not pass emissions right now! Due have all stock exhaust, airpump, etc. and can have it on the car if needed.
Car just came back from the Deals Gap Rotary Event and ran great.

Over 7k in it but selling for $5000 Firm
Don't call or IM me with some dumb offer. If you don't think it is not worth 5k then move on and try to build a gsl-se like this cheaper.
Still working on converting all of the interior to black. Once complete price will go up.

I've rode in it and looked it over, a very clean car...

To potential rx7 buyer/owners, forget that its a $5000 FB, and think of what you are getting out of a $5000 car... its worth it in my opinion. Good luck Chad I'd pick it up if I could...

more pics


ac system is only lacking a compressor. All gaskets replaced and leak test was performed to find compressor leaking. I ordered one but came in wrong. Now to try to return it if I can.
Miles on car was 174K when motor, suspension, brakes were rebuilt and zero mile speedo was put in so the miles shown is the miles on motor, suspension.

Interior still needs some converting to black in the rear. Headliner is done but sunroof panel needs to be done as I was not gonna worry about it and just run a glass roof.

All four tires have 8-9k on them.

Car has alot of pep for a na the way she is set up, but also makes for a good daily driver.

Thanks to everyone on the comments. It is a great car and is almost completely done. A little more work and someone could have one of the nicest gsl-se out there and not have to worry about the motor for a long time. I was building it to keep as I have owned her since 2000 or 2001 but in the quest to own all the gens I can only have one of each.

To everyone that knows this car or has seen it in person please give some thoughts on it. I have two people interested in it if I get it to where they can pass emissions. One man I have is in Texas the other in GA. So if you know the car, add some feedback for them.
Thanks
Chad

Well the GSL-SE is gone! Sad day, but I did get to have lunch with the new owner and his wife so I feel it is going to a good home and will be finished off right!
Ames, it was good to meet you and the wife. I was good to put a face with the voice. Keep in touch, let me know ow the car is doing.

Also wanted to say thank you to you and your wife for serving our Country!

I think I just saw this car yesterday...in the last place I expected to see an rx7

I won't say where, in case the owner would be ashamed to have been caught in that town (j/k, for privacy)


I just thought it was really strange to have read thru this thread on the 30th, and drive by what may have been the very same car barely 48hrs later, so far from my Alabama home

His wife is from a very small town (2,000 people) in AL just outside GA and Chattanooga. He was visiting there before he goes back overseas.
