Hi from the Netherlands

Post by cjvanderhiele »

Hi folks,

I'm new here and from the southwest of the Netherlands. I'm a friend of Dirkk which You all know around here.
I have a 1981 RX7 FB. This was one of the first registered FB's in the Netherlands and was a press car of the former Dutch Mazda importer. The car was in magazines and a Yearbook that I have with the car.
Also I have a 1983 FB which I'm restoring right now from a severe damage. It had a new roof and complete respray in Sunbeam Silver recently.
The third RX7 is a 1991 FC Turbo convertible in Blaze red and excellent shape.
I will post some pics later on!
I am also a board member of the Dutch RX7 club and responsible for our full color club magazine named "Rotary Passion".
Please feel free to take a look at our clubsite: www.rx-7club.nl
Enjoy!

Cheers,
Jan Kees ;)

Welcome to the website. Another Dutchman with a great collection of RX7s can't wait for the pics.
Maybe the two clubs could organise a meet sometime, an epic RX7 continental blast. I'd love to drive my SA across Europe, once she is back on the road :lol:

1983 FB how I bought it back in november 2010. I had restored this car about ten years ago but was so stupid to sell it back in 2005. The previous owner crushed it as You can see. I can start a new thread about this car if You like. I have many pics from the restoration until now. (it is not completely finished yet)

Hi, and welcome along!

I feel more optimistic should I ever crash mine now, looks like they put up with it quite well :shock: I'd love to see a repair thread on that as well.
