This was Rx-7 #2, it had been sitting in a field for a year when the previous owner was forced to sell it. I picked it up cheap since he didn’t even have the key, though thanks to the quality Mazda locks I was able to use the one from my other Rx7. It did take some work to get it moving under it’s own power, I ended up replacing the clutch, clutch hydraulics, rear calipers, rear wheel bearing, and dtss bushings to get it back on the road.
This was my daily for over a year. At some point I rear-ended someone in Boston. I kept driving it for a while, but things deteriorated quickly after that.
