This car has been in the same place 22 years, after many tries and many years he decided to sell it to me. It’s truly fate. Will it run video coming soon! Thanks for watching!
Just saved an 87 NA from the salvage yard. Hoping I didn’t make a mistake, everything is complete on it engine and interior wise for the most part. It’s just been sitting since I believe 06/07. Got power to the car not a ton of the electrical stuff works but it cranks good. Have to go through the fuel system before I can start it. Videos like these give me motivation to keep going.
@@QualityKills98 they are definitely worth saving! One part at a time! Woot woot This one’s giving me some trouble haha but parts are on the way for the will it run video! Best of luck on your new project! I love the rx7s
@@QualityKills98she’s giving me some trouble haha! But hopefully the video comes out soon. Turn key and nothing happens. Did starter. 80amp fuse, checked the main relay was good. Gunna just keep chasing haha 😆 😅
I’ve just found one too. UK stood for 23 years. Engine looked similar, very crusty. Rust holes underneath. Got it started after cleaning injectors and a service. Good luck.
funny enough i just bought a 87 rx7 a couple days ago, been sitting for 5 years. I got it home and started working on it ASAP, already had it running off a bottle so i put a pump in it and it wont start on its own yet unfortunately. excited to see you get it running!!
What's with people 20 years ago and abandoning FCs? My first FC was a barn find that was abandoned in 2001, and my current one that I'm close to getting drivable was (supposedly) abandoned in 2002 A guy I saw in Germany bought an FC Turbo that was sitting for 17 years too
Nah, if this guy puts his heart and wallet into it, he will have a great ride at the end of all this. If you've seen juiceboxforyou's AE86 restoration project, it sat in a Irish field for well over a decade, rust everywhere, but it was brought back in less than 6 years, minimal rust, replaced arches, everything. I don't know Kyle, I just stumbled upon his video, but I have faith he will get it cleaned up nicely, considering he has tried for the past 22 years to buy it from the owner.
I have no idea about the regulations over there. I'm sure it will drive in a few months. But over here, oldtimers have an MOT every 2 years. If they see rustholes you can forget it. I don't think or friend really cares 😊
It don’t take much when you are handy with cars and can do a lot of stuff yourself. But it’s the tricks you can learn from the old timers that are the most valuable. People that use to wreck these things every weekend then work through the week night to do it all again.
