The weather has not been cooperating recently, but I was able to snag a few pictures of the RX-7 before it started raining again.





And now, some pictures of the damaged interior:

As you can see, the steering column cover and ignition were damaged. The horn relay went kaput, so a second horn was rigged up with a doorbell on the dash as a horn button. I resoldered the relay today, as well as the brake light relay (that one went out on me right after I got the car. Luckily, the shop I went to for inspection caught it before they inspected it). Now that the stock horn is working again, I'll remove the second horn.



Center console damage. Note the Razo shift knob so I'm not tearing up my hand on the shifter threads.



This is the wiper switch the P.O. jury-rigged up when the wiper switch relay shorted out. I'm waiting on new relays so I can repair the stock switch.



It needs:
-Thermostat
-Front wheel bearings
-Oil pan gasket
-A bunch of missing interior bits
-Hatch-to-body seal
-Shifter bushings
-Fresh paint

I have some of the parts I need, but the weather needs to clear up before I can start installing them. I've been concentrating on electrical issues in the meantime.

Planned mods will include Hawk pads, Brembo rotors, strut tower bars, anti-roll bars, K&N air intake, Racing Beat headers and exhaust, GC springs, and Koni adjustibles.
