FOR AUCTION
1980 MAZDA RX7
I have for auction a 1980 RX7. The vehicle is not running and was in the early phase of a total rebuild. This is a project car and will require being shipped or hauled to the location of your choice. My son and I had big plans for the little car but family illness has caused us to rethink our involvement in this project.
When we bought this car it had been sitting for years. The young man who owned the car had just had the motor rebuilt and then had a problem with the hydraulic clutch so he parked it. It sat in the same place for years until we bought it. It has good and bad points about it so I thought I would just list them and let the buyer decide. The starting price is $500.00 with no reserve. I have the title in hand. Good Luck!
THE GOOD
The Body shows no evidence of damage or wrecks
The glass is all good the windows roll up & down, the electric rear hatch works
The seats were replaced when the engine was rebuilt and are in very good shape
All of the interior parts are all there but many will need replaced
The engine turns over and there is fire to the plugs (we tried once to get it to start but it would not hit)
The 5 speed shifts without problems sitting still
The wheels are in good shape and would be nice when cleaned up (spare tire and wheel are included)
New water pump still in the box $35
New carpet complete set still in the box $200
New dash board cover still in the box $45
Engine, transmission, drive shaft, rear end untouched since rebuild
Most of the exterior trim mold is intact
Brakes will pump up and hold
The oil cooler and radiator intact, the block was drained when it was parked, I filled the radiator and block no leaks
No floorboard rust
Good Pictures
THE BAD
The tires are showing dry rot
There is some surface rust under the doors but it is not bad
The car has not run in years ( the engine may run if someone knows how to work on rotary engines)
The hydraulic clutch is bad
This is a project car which will require work to bring it up to an acceptable condition
The car will need to be hauled
Again this is a project car
As you can imagine there is NO warranty give or implied. I will be happy to answer any of your questions so ask before you bid.

2016 Mazda MX-5 Miata to be revealed on September 3 [w/video]
Thu, 03 Jul 2014Now in its 25th year and on the market in its current form since 2005, the Mazda MX-5 Miata has been due for replacement for some time now. A mid-life facelift helped things along some in 2008, but the moment that roadster enthusiasts have been anxiously awaiting is almost upon us.
Mazda has now confirmed that the 2016 MX-5 will be officially unveiled on September 3 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca just ahead of the "Miatas at Mazda Raceway" event, where the Japanese automaker will also display "an array of heritage, concept and motorsports MX-5s," just as it did alongside the upcoming new roadster's Skyactiv chassis at the New York Auto Show.
Not to leave the European and Asian markets out of the fun, Mazda will simultaneously unveil the new Miata in Spain and Japan as well. But in the meantime you can view the teaser video and press release below to keep that excitement drummed up.
44 Miatas engaged to spell happiness from above
Mon, 16 Jun 2014We've seen all manner of ways to propose marriage, from the usual candlelit dinner to the Jumbotron at the big game. A friend of ours recently proposed with his a barbershop quartet singing backup. But this has to be a new one - and one that automotive enthusiasts would probably find even more touching than a sky-writing biplane.
A member of the Miata.net forum recently asked other MX-5 enthusiasts to help him pop the big question to his bride-to-be. He got 31 Miatas together and needed just four more, but after appealing to his fellow roadster fans, over 40 turned up in the parking lot at the local high school.
The groom-to-be runs an aerial photography business and used an unmanned drone which his girlfriend thought would be shooting some local real estate properties when it flew over the parking lot and captured the image you see above with 44 little roadsters spelling out "Marry Me?" The answer, in case you were wondering, was a resounding "Yes!" How could she not, after all, when those Mazda convertibles are just so darn adorable? Now they'll just need to figure out what they'll be driving to the chapel on the big day.
Mazda sells 10 millionth car in the US, does something special
Wed, 23 Oct 2013When Lauren Carter of Glen Ellyn, IL was in the market for her first car, she went for a Mazda3. Not a bad choice, but not necessarily remarkable on the surface. After all, Mazda sold 123,361 of them here last year alone. What she didn't know was that the car she bought was the 10 millionth Mazda had sold in the US over the course of its 43-year history here, since selling its first rotary-powered R100 here in 1970.
Rather than let the occasion pass with nothing more than a press release (like the one below), Mazda gave Lauren a brand-new 2014 Mazda3 to replace the 2013 model she had bought. Which is a nice gesture, of course, but also enables Mazda to hold on to the landmark 10,000,000th car in its heritage collection.
