I would opt for a professional upholstery job for the seats to mimic the original appearance. The only major downside I see is that the awesome 70’s plaid seat inserts are worn/rotted, so the seats will need some attention in the future. As a whole the interior looks quite fair as if it would clean up very well. I also prefer the exterior styling as well compared to the later and greater GSL-SE that so many rotary folks admire. I personally like the earlier body style of the first generation RX7 as the interior has a more classic appearance. Just add some ATF and turn the engine over by hand and its ready to roll.” So I would suggest an ATF treatment, as well as a total fuel, brake, and cooling system overhaul and check as would be the norm for any long term parked vehicle. I have heard rotary folks say that “12A’s will run after being submerged in the ocean for a few years. While some folks hold certain ideas about rotary engines, these early 12A units are quite reliable and offer a fair level of fun in this lightweight chassis. Thanks to Gary for sharing this fantastic example of an early surviving RX7! The SA22/FB RX7 chassis has a huge cult following, making this low mileage find a steal for the $2,750 asking price! Check out this beauty here on craigslist out of Berlin, Connecticut. Fast forward 2018 and this sweet low mileage find has survived the test of time very well. Purchased new in the Connecticut area, this Mazda RX7 was driven only 48,439 miles before it was parked in a garage in 1989. Mazda’s “Rotary experimental” cars have forged a line in history that can’t be ignored, and this 1979 model still has a long life ahead of itself.
