My New Toy
I picked up a 1984 RX-7 GSL-SE over the weekend for free. It is a very clean car. The interior need a real good cleaning but is perfect otherwise. The exterior has a good size dent in the left front fender, the front bumper is shot, and the clear is gone from the hood and roof. The motor doesn't run but it turns over and looks to be in great shape. I haven't spent much time diagnosing the car. My guess is the car isn't getting fuel. It could be the ECU though.

It does have a new bosch alternator, new tires (put on 2 years ago right before the car was parked), it also has a new oil cooler line from mazda in the car. It came with the FSM, haynes, Chiltons, and the owners manual.

The guy I got the car from didn't give me a title for the car but he did give me bill of sale. I just talked to him and he is going to get me a title.

I plan to keep it as a whole. I'm probably going to put the motor from the black car into it and part out the black car.
Do you have any time this weekend or maybe friday afternoon that you might be able to look at the car with me? The car is over at Eric's right now.
