My 1983 Mazda RX-7 GSL
This is a video of my baby. She's in awesome condition, except for the fact that she doesn't run. I could just put in a new battery and start her up, but I don't want to risk harming the rotor housing because the apex seals are probably dry after 8 years of no use. I've got some after-market parts in here: Mikuni carb, Racing Beat headers, Racing Beat sway bar, strut tower brace, Racing Beat Exhaust system, and 15 inch gold Riken rims. We also took out the stock 12A engine and put in the 13B for some more horses. It's also street ported.
ENJOY!
1919 Buick First start since 1952
This is the first startup of this 1919 buick six roadster that had been sitting in a barn in ohio since 1952. It was parked there with a bad differential. My boss bought it on Ebay and i gently disassembled the engine, cleaned out the 50+ year old oil, freed up the piston rings and put it back together. I had to substitute a newer coil to get a strong spark and had manually filled the float bowl of the carburetor. No fuel pump was hooked up or water in the engine hence the short run time. This is a very cool early overhead valve engine with an aluminum crankcase,cast iron cylinder block, roller tappets, exposed valvetrain, zero gap piston rings, and electric start. This car had about 14,000 miles on the odometer. Enjoy the video! Check out my other video/slide show for engine disassembly pictures.
Cars that should be driven
They're all long gone. Pretty shame they didn't get the attention they deserved

Abandonded SA22 & FC RX7's
I am just tripping over these things, and I don't mean in the mind-alteringly way. I mean, it is next to impossible for me to leave my house without bumping into abandoned, mass-produced, '80's, Japanese sports cars. I'm not complaining, it's just that since I started noticing, I've noticed a lot!
