Didn't expect to find rust when I pulled the engine on our '73 teener to replace with new 2165. Four years of daily driver use & I honestly thought it was rust free. Well, it's not... must be time to (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
Unfortunately, I don't weld. I'll need to have it towed somewhere for repair. In the meantime, I needed wheels, so I bought this '88 Mazda RX7 Convertible. Anybody have experience with these cars that you could share??? Good points/Bad points? At least it's a convertible... (but,I still miss drivin' my teener) Thanks, Gary Attached image(s)

I had a 91 (last year of that style) white vert for two years... Mine was a auto and somewhat of a dog, but was super low miles 33k and rock solid reliable. It had a battery replaced and tires in two years that's it! I hear the apex seals are a issue as well as emissions if you are in a state that tests... A bit on the heavy side but nice cruiser.
I miss it. Oh and if you live in a area where theft is a concern, those bbs wheels are valuable to the miata and vwgti crowd. Ferg. |
