Introducing my FB!

[P71]

Here is my FB in all of it's just-purchased glory!

Story goes, I had a street-ported 86 RX-7 over 5 years ago. Didn't have it long, but I loved how it drove, and how fast it was! I sold it and regretted it ever since.

Fast-forward to early last week. Another forum I'm on started talking about cars we've sold, and which ones we regret/miss the most. I've been going through car withdrawals ever since selling my Turbo'd Thunderbird back in September, so I started looking up RX-7's on craigslist for the grins and giggles...

Then I happened upon an ad for an 83 RX-7 GSL, 5-Speed, sunroof (metal and glass), for a good price. I met the seller at PI last Saturday while I was attending some racing with my Crown 'Vic. It was a red-on-red GSL, 5-Speed, manual steering, rust-free.

We got to talking about other cars, and a few minutes later we were making a deal. I traded a Ford 302/5.0 roller motor, complete with all of the fuel injection/wiring/ECU, for the RX-7.

Anyways, it gets here tomorrow to stay permanently (and the motor goes away). I'm really looking forward to it! I already have the title and insured it, so I'll be ready to go as soon as it shows up

These pics are from last Saturday when I "bought" it.
