Vintage photo of a vintage RX-7

Hey guys,

I was going through some old pictures at my parent's house when I stumbled across this photo. This was taken one day my Dad washed his 1992 RX-7 GSL.
The back of this photo is dated March 1983.

Unfortunately, this car is long gone. A woman ran through this car and into a video store while it was parked. How I wish it was passed down to me

I don't know anything about the specs of the car. I could always ask him if anyone is that interested.

Sorry about the crappy picture of a picture, I will scan it later and replace this image. Hope this does for now.

There is more color and detail in the photo, had to do with a bad phone pic until I can get to a scanner

Just talked to my Dad. It's a 1982 RX7 GSL. It's the luxury edition with leather seats, removable sunroof (came with two tops; a smoked glass, and a painted top with matching appolstrey on the inside). The car also had a Targa band. This band was a stainless steel and wraped the side from behind the doors up.
This car was equipt with the 1.1L 12A dual rotor engine and a 5-speed manual transmission.
He bought it 1 year old from his friend. The price was 10K so he traded his 76 anniversary edition Trans-am and a Toyota truck even for it.

It also would have had a limited slip differential and the only model to have 4 wheel disc brakes. I really want another FB
