1984 Mazda RX-7
1984 Mazda RX-7. Grey, in my sig currently. 5-speed, 230,000+ on the odometer.
Car ran great, until one of the rotors lost an apex seal. It has run about the last 2,000 miles like this.
Exhaust has a leak by the ports. Muffler is hanging.
It's quite loud now, slow as hell due to the lost compression, but it does run. It's hard to start, and when it's warmed up, it doesn't idle, and runs pretty hot.
Driver's side window is down, won't go up.
Seats need covers, or replaced.
Tires are good, front left will probably need replaced eventually, alignment seems a little off, got the outside of the tire balding.
Tachometer doesn't work. I think it has to do with the trailing coil being bad. Haven't checked it, and obviously, I had bigger problems develop anyhow.
The car does drive, but the 12A is about dead. Make an offer, I'd like it gone within a month.
Any questions, PM me. I try to be honest about the condition of anything I ever sell, so it probably sounds pretty bad. But at least I'm not hiding anything. I can take pictures on request. May consider parting out, but probably best to pull it yourself as I work slowly.

Right now it's either $300 cash or a good paint job for the Buick. I'm leaning toward the paint job.
Questions OTHER than "How much" PM me. $300+ is "How much." I really don't want to answer 20 people asking "How much?" Especially when I have 2 cars to sell, and nobody specifies what car they mean.
