Greetings from the United States
Just discovered this forum. The name is Joe. Just recently purchased a 1985 GSL-SE that I am going to restore/fix up. I have owned a fb rx7 on and off for the last 40 years. Bought my first one brand new in 1981. Wish I had never sold it. Live in Washington State here in the US where we drive on the correct side of the road
. Looking forward to learning all about the RX7 scene in the UK.

Tried to post a picture but when I click on the insert image box and add the link when I preview the post all I see is a square with the word image beside it.

Re: Greetings from the United States
Here is a picture of my current car. The paint looks better in the picture than in real life. Lots of fading and clear coat peel. The up side is the body has no rust rot in the usual places. Good restorable platform. Going through all the electrical systems currently getting them to work. Mostly corroded switch contacts.
