Anyone interested in taking my RX-7 ?

It is a LHD, US Spec., Series 1, imported from the Middle East about ten years ago. Black, Half Leather, Air Con, etc. Bodywork and Trim are excellent, interior needs some attention but engine is not currently running.

Easy restoration project or good for spares. Let me know if you are interested

All I am asking for is a good home :)

You would need to collect (West London) and pay my expenses to meet you (i.e. petrol). The private plate (A2KOF) will come with it.

Being totally honest, I don't know enough about RX-7's to say. What I do know is that it was originally bought new by my father around 1985/1986 in Saudi Arabia (US Specification, I believe) and driven back to the UK in the mid '90s. It was originally maintained by Jimmy's RX-7 in Cambridgeshire but hasn't really been used recently.

Where exactly would it need collecting from?

Sorry for all the questions - whats up with the engine?

Errrmmm...

Again, sorry, don't know exactly. My guess is lack of use has not done it any favours, but I think it would have to be stripped to determine root cause.

I admit that I don't know enough about the car but I also don't want to say or promise anything that I might not be able to deliver. I would like to give the car to someone that will make use of it one way or another, rather than just dispose of it as that would be a real waste.

Unless I'm missing something, the photo your link shows is NOT a US spec car; US cars don't have the mid-fender repeaters, nor the two-lense front bumper signal lights, nor the mirrors shown; and I note holes for the head lamp washers, which were not available on US cars either. Look like a european-spec RX7 to me-
