*****She's gone! Good luck to Jamador!******


Well, it's been too long, and I haven't touched my project. She's lived in a trailer in my driveway for quite some time now.

Much of this build was inspired from this forum many moons ago.

Build was going to be for autocross use. I moved and the dream never got finished.

The frame is probably 80% complete, will still need some final welding, clean up, etc. It is in rough shape, but should be very salvageable.
All items seen in these pics are included.
Pictures here:

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tm5pp32phcden7f/AAAvjj1BsFyOIWWrR19ozt24a?dl=0

The engine in the car is not running, was used for fitment only.
Was going to be a dry sump setup on the 13B.

Lots of really nice parts here, most were brand new. Had high hopes for it like we all do!

Haltech ecu, racepaq display and a mess of sensors
Innovate wideband and controller
Electric water pump
Will wood brakes all around, wilwood MC / Gas /Clutch pedal assy
RX7 rear end, freshly rebuilt, lsd
RX7 5 speed
15x10 wheels
Seats and covers are in like new condition
Nosecone and fenders from Jack on here
MSD Ignition
Large Custom radiator
Large Oil Cooler
Shocks from a shelby series 1, brand new - shorter springs included
Lots of extra hoses, fittings, suspension parts
Driveshaft and axles are all fit
Most of the electrical harness is complete
rear suspension is not completed, close though - parts included.

You bring your trailer here and haul off everything, no shipping. Located outside of Baton Rouge, LA.
$3000 OBO.

PM for contact info.

Thanks all!

James

Wow. If I had more garage space I'd be making arrangements. It looks like everything you've done was done very well. Oil plumbing, brake lines, chassis, control arms...all look done well. Sorry that you couldn't finish it...it can be a struggle. Good luck with the sale.

Guys - best offer!!!
Surely someone needs a nice project. I can't move on to my next project till this one is gone. Lots of really nice stuff for the $$.

Will start parting out soon If I don't find a buyer.

Thanks,
James

Hello James-

I have some questions for you involving your frame sale and it appears that PM is not working(though I'm new here).

(email deleted)

Could you drop me a note when you get a moment so we can discuss it?

Best,

Nick

Nobody is interested? I can personally say the thrill of a 13B in such a light car is a blast to drive. the 13B really comes alive ~4-5k RPM. I hope somebody picks up this project and sees it thru to the end. Tommy, can you hear me? :mrgreen:


Geauxkart, sorry to see you stall out. Good luck with this sale. If you have no takers, you may just have to part it out. You've got a lot of goodies in that package.

Guys - one last bump here. Going to start parting out the project. Would love for someone to scoop this up, and would make you a hell of a deal. Don't have the motivation or time to sell all of these parts, but this stuff needs a better home!

I can't believe no one is interested in this? If I wasn't 20 hours away I would jump on this.
