This 1983 Mazda RX7 has been in a dry garage since her owner drove in 30 years ago. After seeing her on #thelatebrakeshow I now own this rare piece of Japanese history. In this episode I collect the car, biring it home to my workshop and cross my fingers that all is as it seems! It all came about from watching an episode of Jonny Smith's Late Brake Show.

Wow, so you're the new owner! Nice! Looking forward to see you bring this back to glory!!

What a great looking car!

@therackles Год назад

You can buy tanks new along with a lot of other parts new and reproduced. Huge in us, nz and Australian

Hi and thanks for the message. Sadly the only tanks being produced are for later FBs with smaller spare wheel well so they don't fit mine. You're right, there seems to be a huge market in the US and Australia - I'm sure i'll be buying some smally parts from there! Thanks so much for watching.

Great project! How much did you purchase it for?

@mojooftheg5961 Год назад

Examine the upper right front side are of the engine (as you face the engine). If you see obvious signs of oil leakage that is not a good sign.

Thanks, I'll do that. There was certainly nothing there when I took a quick look but I'll look in more detail.

It's amazing to me how people are willing to have two or three projects going all the time. I can barely manage one. Love the new dogs though... jealous of that setup. Any follow up planned on the MGB. I know it's been a long time since those videos were made....

Hi William. We published a video on the MG last week. Another one's planned in the next fortnight. Thanks for watching.

its simple we buy our dream cars n if it has to set on the sidelines oh well at least i secured the bag so to speak

@mpk490p Год назад

Have you lifted the rear seat yet..... i would check the side of the wheel wells as the mounting points can rot, also bottom of the doors. Had a dozen FB's but unfortunately sold all my spares although yours looks mostly there. Good to see another one saved must only be 20/30 on the roads today if that

@flatcapsnclassics9928 Год назад

Thanks for the message. All is very good under the rear seat so keep your fingers crossed! Next episode coming soon.

Been wandering where this car would end up! v excited to see what you do with it. on a side note essex rotary sell new fuel tanks for them if you need it.

@flatcapsnclassics9928 Год назад

Hi. Thanks for watching and the recommendation. Sadly the only fuel tanks available are for '84 cars onward with a shallower spare wheel well and therefore different shaped tank.

You can do a spare wheel well mod. I flat floored mine to put the 85lt in. Bolts up perfect into the factory holes
