we were talking about this yesterday,



1986 rx7 base, gold, bought it with 75k on it in 94, thermopellet failed @118k

1980 rx7, $200 bought with a bad engine, we put a 6 port 12a in it, and painted it, this is the start....

1968 mustang, 289? 4 speed, headers, pile of junk, slower than the fc.....

1980 rx7, imsa flare kit, targe top (someone actually cut the roof off), looked cool, sloooow

1984 gsl, another beater, it had a small fire due to a dowel pin oil leak. i put a used motor in it and drove it for around a year or so. it sometimes had an rb exhaust and holley intake

1984 gsl-se, brown, bought it wrecked and rebuilt it, it turned out really nice, too

1973 mgb, piile if junk, but it sounded great!

1981 rx7, i bought it for the seats, gave it to a friend for his birthday

1984 rx7, white, it had a mazdatrix built 13b, dellorto, etc etc etc, i couldnt get it to pass smog so i sold it

1984 rx7, white. stock, another dowel pin leaker, but i put 20,000miles on it, and spent a grand total of $350, including resealing the motor

1985 gsl-se, maroon, it had all the windows smashed when i bought it. it was FAST, but ugly, got hit by a door on the freeway.

1985 gsl-se, black, big pile of crap, it had been hit on the drivers side and was mostly bondo and rust, it was fast too, until the motor let go, 211k

1985 gsl-se, also black, this one i got in 99, and just recently sold, it has been abused by um anyone and everyone, 240+k on the odometer

1993 rx7, cym

1965 nsu wankel spider, nobody's ever driven this car, no gorilla suits.....

1971 r100, same as the nsu, hector's got it now, it actually might run soon for the first time in 15 years

1985 gsl-se, it had an engine fire, i made it run, had it painted, and then let it sit in a field for 4 years, i didnt feel like restoring it AGAIN, so i sold it.

1988 turbo2, i bought it with a seized up engine, put a motor in it, then it got vandalised, and i put a 3 rotor in it, then i put it back to stock and sold it.

1958 tr3, someone traded it in for a miata....

1966 mercedes 250s, was a nice car, stick too, my friend insisted on buying it for more than i paid for it, so i did....

1983 rx7 limited edition, another $300 special, i put almost 20k on the car, i sold it for $900, which actually means i made about $50.... cant beat that

1991 mazda rx7 coupe b package, needed a motor, i was hoping to just reseal it, but everything was shot, so i didnt, GD is putting an fd motor into it i think

1985 GSL-SE, silver, bought it for $400 washed it and sold it for $1200.... it even passed smog

1971 mercedes 300sel 3.5, the moose. i drove it for about a year or so, now its just sitting, its getting painted someday....

1985 gsl-se, silver with the shaded glass and painted mirrors, it was built as an auto-x car, its the current project, it will get done when it gets done.

1991 rx7 coupe automatic. its nice, stock, low miles.



i think thats everything....

bold we still have:



1981 Yamaha Virago 750, sold for next to nothing, should've been scrapped

2001 Honda Shadow Spirit 750, bought new, still own

1986 Gold "base" FC, technically my wife owns it, came with...

1987 FC, use for parts

1993 Nissan Maxima, bought with intention to sell (bad tranny, paid $400, had tranny rebuilt), never driven more than a few miles, probably will trade it in when buying new car

1990 Blue Vert FC, a gift to the wife, but technically I own it

2000 Hyundai Sonata GLS V6, wife's car since high school, also will most likely be traded in for new car
