				The RX2
			 
			
			Well I guess I never posted this up here. My dad and I picked up a RX2 right down the street from where I live..I drove by this little store and couldnt believe what I say at first I thought it had to be a old toyota or something but there it was a RX2!! Well I hope to have updates to this soon. Dad is on the RCC now so maybe he can post up some more pictures also.

			I agree!! freaking diving boards hanging off the poor thing..almost makes it ugly!!  yea I hope it will make its way on to the road soon, need to get with dad a figure out whats first on the list the past 3 years we have rescued a cosmo from TN a RX3 from GA and this RX2 right here in VA. I think we need a barn or a big garage before we do anything else. We are up to 12 rotaries

			Its nice but it sucks too..A lot of them are sitting in the open cause we dont have a way to keep them all protected. The Cosmos and REPUs have been around the longest dads had them for over 25 years

			So is the RX2 like the RX3 when it comes to how the bumpers mount? What does it look like if you remove those bumpers? I think we could figure something out with the parts you have laying around at the farm..
