Dreaming of Shock Diamonds


Oh jeez, I'm in a similar boat to the spyder regarding "donor/parts" RX-7's.

Let's work backwards chronologically? Current stable(?) bolded.

2017 Porsche Macan - Wife's daily and road trip vehicle. Just rolled 72k km.
2015 Ford Lobo (Ford Mexico knows how to name poo poo) - Horse trailer tow vehicle, large puppy transport and rotary support vehicle. Just rolled 167k km.
1981 Mazda RX-7 "Sweet Chili Heat" - Co-owner with fellow goon DrakeriderCa. Sold as final challenge of the Transmountain 2 Tidewater Rally.
2012 Jeep Wrangler Sahara Unlimited - Irredeemable POS. Sold after paint started flaking off every panel within warranty. Ate axle seals every 30k km. Transmission started popping out of gear after 50k km.
2006 Mazda RX-8 GT- Wife's former daily. Now project / track car. Occasional daily when it's not under the knife for something large. Just rolled 123k km.
2003 Subaru Forester L - Sold with 498k km on. Should have kept it.
1987 Mazda RX-7 (proto GTUs) - Sold (at a heavy loss) after the body wiring harness started corroding from municipal calcium chloride use and was undriveable. No room to repair it at the time. Still miss it. Former daily.
1985 Mazda RX-7 GSL-SE - Sold after rear suspension pickup points rusted away and totaled the chassis. Drivetrain went into local IT7 class racer. Former daily while 1987 RX-7 was in purgatory.

4 other FC RX-7's that were donor chassis to my DD FC.
2 other FB RX-7's that were donor chassis to the GSL-SE.
3 other FB RX-7's that were donor chassis to the '81 RX-7.
