im sure he would want it to live on through another 7 lover and not some guy that bid on it for fun

I'm in Ontario,

I don't know. . . It's Jinxed as far as I'm concerned!

I know there just parts, but. . . . I don't know if I'd feel right about it.

But if you knew him, and knew he would have wanted it that way. . . .

Maybe.

If you don't think anyone should have it, Buy It and Crush it!

the situation is that a forum member has fronted the towing fees and impound fee, and is not sitting on his driveway. Jesse's mom called and asked that hte car be given to the rx7 community, the canadian forum is looking to do a raffle. You get one ticket and the price is 400 for the drivetrain. and all money is going to jesse's family



I personally will not be participating, but this is what i believe jesse would have wanted...

Sounds reasonable as long as the family is cool with that.

they need to take the motor and crush the rest, cars do have karma.

Yup! That's what I'm saying!

It's like buying a wedding ring from a pawn shop!!

Carries some bad karma with it!!

I'd buy it, put it in something and have a memorial plaq attached to it

IMHO if the family is asking for the car to be given to the RX7 community then I say go for it. If you really wanted to do it right you should sell it to someone who has a silver rx7 so that that person can recreate Jesse's car in his memory. Maybe this person could even customize thier plates to read "ILMOJ"(in Loving Memory of Jesse). Personally I would love it if someone did this for my child, if I had one. As a matter of fact I know someone who has a silver FD in need of an engine and some slight body and interior work. I don't think he would do it but, maybe someone else with asilver fd would. This is just a suggestion!
