    Default 89' rx7, what should i do









    So I just picked this up for $300, body is in decent shape, doesn't run, the dude said it need an alternator and thermostat housing. I just did a motor swap on my other 7 and am saving money to rebuild and bridgeport my old motor. I would like some honest opinions as to what I should do with this. I thought about stripping it out completely and setting it up to either race or drift!

    Only if you think your first one looks good, I suppose. In my opinion, the white one already looks much better than the other. Later, QD.

    I take it that you like the look of a stock rx7, I do agree that my first one is kinda ugly, its cause of the wheels

    Exactly. Otherwise, I like it.

    As far as me liking the stock look? Yes, I do. But my comparison was that the stock look looks better than your "wheeled" one. Later, QD.

    Clean it up and add a good wax. I would keep the car clean with a few RE Amemiya or OEM Savanna parts. Save up for some nice wheels. Rx-7's deserve better than knock-offs.

    Thanks for the comments, I will decide if I want to part it out. If I do I will PM the ones that mention they need something. PM phone #'s so I can get in contact with you faster and easier.
