Hah, no... I'm in the Marine Corps, I live in Jacksonville NC, but Maryville is my home town and I keep my cars registered there. Did you used to have a black TII?


I suppose I'll update this thread while I'm here.... I swapped in a GSL rearend and installed stainless steel braided brake hoses, that is all.

Looks great... How about a pic of what you put back into the interior?

A while I guess, at least 3 or 4 more years.

What makes you think I put anything back in there? Just the TII seats, the craptastic dash and console, and a shiny new shifter boot from Rick. It's still mostly stripped out. I'm concentrating on the mechanicals first, and yes I think I just made up that word.

No, 'concentrating' is not a new word.

I think it is amazing work you are doing - and even more amazing that the frame/rockers were not rotted.

if it wasnt you then there is someone out there trying to scam people using your car photos

[impulsive-RX7]

I'm gonna sell this car now if anyone is interested. I'm tired of wrenching on shit, I don't have the time or motivation to finish this project.

Looking forward to meeting you tomorrow. This car will continue to get justice.
