Well me and my dad just aquired a lovly gem this weekend!! a early 79 rx7! im a 2nd gen person but this ones so nice it makes me want to drive it!
The Origional owner called her the silver lady! was his till he passed away and gave it to his daughter who then sold it to us.
its a very early 79 built in 4/78 and has a vin of sa22c5059xx meaning it was the 5900th of the USA models built!! has the cool hood prop mounted on the pass side of the hood!
Has new silver paint with pinstripe painted detailing added. Theres like no dings on this car at all!! Then the interior is in great shape and the seats were redone several yrs ago. Also came with these strange Appliance wheels w/ the rotolug ****,( even came with a 5th extra wheel still in the box from 25+ yr ago) The motor is toast, but we are going to drop another one in and get this gem back on the road!!

Looks pretty clean, See you got her home safely as well. Yea theres a white 79 at pull a part in Tacoma, hood prop is on the drivers side. So thats definately an older one. Whoops logged in as M, Must pay better attention
