bananahamuck Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 mmmm me love non rx 7 rx cars..... Yeah i used to think that way too,, till i got tired of buying engines..Had a 74 RX4,, 72 RX 2 2door and wife had a 87? RX7 ,, sold them all dirt cheap just to save my sanity..... All these new rotorfanboys should have been around before the internets,,, it`s funny how rare the cars are now because they got scrapped , hell even the dealerships couldn`t help ,, their advise was ,, well,, they didn`t have any. :lol: My old purple screamer ,,,on Polaroids no less :rofl: sold for $500. bucks running with E dizzy and 5speed 4 rebuildable engines thrown in ,,,,, and i threw in all the blue smoke for free.. no pictures of RX2 but if you were local to Oly maybe you might have saw it ...it was i scorching yellow with orange stripes going down the lower part of sides and up over trunk and a black rear trunk area.. What a pisser to see what they go for now.. Quote Link to comment
jrock4224 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 the blue ones got kind a 610 feel to it... and trust me i would find something besides a rin tin tin rotary for it,,,,think bob 3 esque with a miata transplant in it......pretty sure dealerships were of the opinion and recommendation that when your rotary blue smokes , thats how u knew it was running good....when i was a boy younger then your son....my neighbor had a sick red rx 2 and a uber rare 2wd 86 toytoa extra cab that was factory turbo'd...i only seen those in 4x4 up here in the nw... another vehicle i chersih to own ...86 2wd x cab factory turbo yota...my neighbors had gold enki 92's on both the truck and the rx2...much like yours...

bananahamuck Posted March 12, 2013 Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 The couple fishermans kids got those turboed sr5s with their crabber monies and they couldn`t 4 wheel for shit .. Although it might have been that they were new trucks and had never been on their sides ,,, so they didn`t take a run at the problem ,, like the rest of us could. Quote Link to comment

a.d._510_n_ok Posted March 14, 2013 Report Share Posted March 14, 2013 I actually see this guy out driving all the time. First time I remembered to get a pic. I've seen ads for vintage cars using "black plate car" as a selling point for California. I get that they are a 1960s/1970s tag but don't get why it's noted in an ad. If, for instance, a '68 Datsun is still running it's original black tag in 2013 does that mean that it's a one owner or that the registration was never allowed to lapse or can any vintage vehicle run 'em if you can find a matched pair or...........????????

I think that panel truck was in our local car show,about two years ago. You can run Gold/Black & Black/Gold plates on a vehicle in California,if you can A. have both plates not registered to any vehicle,& B. install them on a vehicle that would have come with them originally.Gold/Black plates were replaced on every vehicle registered in CA in 1963,so this panel had the plates replaced in 1963. - Doug 1 Quote Link to comment
