He's going to drive it back to Cleburne, so he wants the tags and stuff on it, legal. I just want it gone, as well as the RX-7.

I can understand wanting it gone. Been there before. There's an RX-7 too?

Well that's good, it'll last whom ever buys it a long time. The auto probe uses that crappy CD4E...

Yeah, the Probe needs a clutch soon, but that's OK with me since it's gone soon.

Well, at least it can still be driven AND it's out of YOUR driveway.

The RX will have to be towed. It's a lost cause. I may pull it to the junkyard or put it on craigslist.

Well, it's a carbureted rotary engine, and the carb is out of whack and needs adjustment, which I can't do, and the clutch slave cylinder needs to be replaced.

Someone I know rebuilt a RX-7 and a RX-8. He's like a super expert at those pesky rotary engines... but I don't think he needs another "project"...

They aren't bad cars/engines... but they do eat oil.

Yes they do. This one looks like a mosquito fogger when you start it after it's been sitting a while.

Not giving them away, just taking very little for them.
