Hi :wave Welcome, looking forward to seeing the pics! We recently bought our lovely RX7 only to find that a water seal had gone only 2 days later :(. It underwent a rebuild at Hayward Rotary and picked it up on Monday...Woohoo! :driving Got to do a boring 1000 mile run in but so happy to have it back (http://www.mazdarotaryclub.com/forums/images/icons/icon10.gif)

Right, here is Eddie\'s car, we picked it up this morning from RE:Worx, I had a chance to see underneath it while it was on the ramps and it looks like it came off the boat last week! This is a UK car, been in nasty cold wet england all it\'s life and does not have a spec of rust on it\'s 16 year old body! That\'s what dry storing for 10 years does I suppose...
Eventually we had to put it out in the rain though:

The car is a beautiful example of a stock UK rx7, it has standard everything, and all the little niggly bits that break or go missing are all still present!
Still has parcel shelf, tool kit, door pocket lid, ashtray lid, unbroken passenger door grab handle, left leg pad, chrome kick plates, it\'s all there!

Plus it\'s leather with bins...

And what with it being a red car, it is amazingly STILL red, not several shades of pink. :)

(Bonnet is open here)

All stock in here too, oh and compression results in the 8\'s to top it off. :)

This is one of the best stock examples I have seen, I hope it stays that way. :)
