Me too. Can you do a little searching for an RX-7 that's a bit closer to Fullerton. There's that one in Tujunga, but I just let some borrow my truck til Monday. I also don't want to drive out quite that far and discover it's rusted to nothing on closer inspection. Though at $650, that's the way to go.

$1200 (Laguna Hills) - I think this one is a little on the high side. Might be able to talk them down.

Default Trailer?

Any of you local fellers got a trailer? This car is going to have to make at least two separate trips on a trailer (pick up, cage). Or might you have a line on a decent cheap trailer. Otherwise we can just rent as needed.

Nice find Bird.

But keep in mind guys, it will PITA to swap out the auto pedals to manual pedals. And prob an additional $100 if you can find them on E-Bay.

Thanks for the reminder. When I swapped 700R4 -> T56 it was definitely a lot of extra time and effort to locate the correct pedals and fabricate the necessary MC.
