Went to the boneyard today, there was a new 86 rotary there, probably 90%+ complete.

Noticed one of these

on it, my 88 Vert doesn't have anything there, what is it? Is it something interesting that I should grab and weld randomly into my engine bay https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png A few minutes of google finds me some pics of cars that have it, some that don't. Thought it might have been a freaky 86 "first model year" kind of thing, but the picture above is a 90.

If I was an uncaring person, I would. I'd strip both 7's down to the ground and sell everything. But, there are only 2 of these things in the pick-n-pulls around here, there has to be other 7 owners looking for parts, I have no right to strip these things for my own financial gain. I'll not take parts that I do not need (heck, I even leave things like mounting bolts or nuts if I know that mine are in working shape).

There are other seven owners looking for parts : ALL OVER THE COUNTRY!



The longer that and other parts sit exposed the less usefull they are. Plus the pickn-pulls in our area have a BAD HABIT of crushing cars with lots of goodies left on them. ie. 88 Convertible with a good top and good qtrs, still had brakes on it.

AE86 GTS with a good rear-end. Those parts are gone now forever

no kidding, there is an 86 base with aluminum hood and some other nice parts still left on it around me.



It's in a boneyard that you would never think of looking for a 7 and they don't advertise so I may pull most of it and sell the parts. If I don't, I think it will just sit and rust until they crush it. I must be the only one pulling from this thing. It was untouched... still had the axle laying across the engine that I was using to pound the water pump loose from six months ago.

Cars don't go bad around here, even in the yards. No rust, no snow, no salt, no rain...



Yards don't junk cars, they'll keep them for years.
