It's nice but I'd get an '81

If you have a secondary car, I say go for it. Be prepared for this beast to blow hoses a lot though.

Only if you have the time, ability and funds necessary to maintain a 45 year old car. Check the car meticulously. For that price, with that many original parts, it's likely going to need a lot of TLC

YOU'LL PAY FOR YOUR WHOLE SEAT BUT YOU'LL ONLY NEED

And he did damn well. Its not for my taste, by I know a few people that have pretty huge boners over this thing. It will do well in the fucking huge American SUV market.

I'm gettin a big brake setup going for my falcon.

I bought some 73 mustang spindles for the bigger bearings, scrounged up some old wheel hubs and Sierra 4 piston calipers, and have new rotors and bearings in the mail right now. Once everything is in one place I can fab some caliper mounts and buy the brake lines and fittings.

Will probably be getting a higher capacity master cylinder too.

Thanks mate, cheers

>>17671884
No because I dislike turbos.

Are you implying 250hp is impressive?

>>17671889
no

>>17671816
Can you do the rotary maintenance? If you can go for it my dude. But it's not a cheap car to own.

>>17671816
Do lots of research into the rotary and how to properly care for it before diving into it.

put 250ml of 2 stoke oil in for every 25l of gas.
change oil when u take it out for the spring and midway thru summer.
expect to sweat, heat pours into cabin
no cup holders
eats gas
get a boost guage. if its in good shape it will hit 10psi then flash to 8 when 2nd turbo kicks in then up to 10 again.
change spark plugs asap and do a compression test while they're in there
prepare to dump money. its one thing to own one, its another to be able to maintain it.
enjoy the sound of boosted rotary @9k rpm. its like a 1000 bee hives under the hood.

>looking at cars when you dont have the cash either on hand or in a savings account.
thats still shitty what he did to you though. "Hey i have someone interested working out the money situation but if it falls through i will let you know." is all it wouldve taken.

Don't count your chickens before they hatch.

You should have at least put a deposit on it if it was that good of a deal. Most sellers are happy to wait a couple of weeks as long as they have a committed buyer

I'm an elitist classic car guy, and even I think that's a sexy car.

It's a blessing in disguise, though. Save your money, it's nice to have a safety net.

is this the latest meme or something

rotary engines stink because they burn oil

>>17671650

Have you seen one of these motherfuckers IRL anon? They are sexy as fuck.

>>17671352
If you're so concerned, drain and refill. Siphoning it out will also work Better to do that now than suffer engine failure. Don't be an asshole and dispose it down the drain; Autozone and the like will dispose of it for you.

Alternatively, try fuel additives (e.g. HEET) and see if that helps. If the water's not too much, that may be good enough.

I hope you learned your lesson.

>>17671366
What kinda lesson was he supposed to learn?

>>17671352
You can add anhydrous ethanol, acetone, or anything in large quantities to make the water burn away if it's in small quantities. Wouldn't risk it, though.

>>17671388
>What kinda lesson was he supposed to learn?

Never fuel up at a shady station you don't know. They probably have a new credit card in his name as well as giving him bad gas.

>winter

NOT SO FAST

>>17671078
A 4x4 truck with at least one locker and some good winter tires. Awd has shit on 4x4 during winter.
