Finally got some pics for you.
The spare engine is missing the rotors for some reason.
They may be around but I can't find them right now. All the rest of it seems to be here. All the parts look like they are ready to go back together.

OK, tomorrow I will take out some more of the extra parts and photo them.
There are alot of good parts that go with this.
Would you please get it out of the driveway?
I'm trying to get the S2 shifter built and in production.
I can't even get the S2 in the driveway to engineer the thing.
I have to work curbside.
Need help here!

Dude 8g for a 2004 that doesn't start ... is that what I'm seeing?

A 2004 isn't worth 8g in perfectly running condition

Well "dude" I may agree with you. Your 2004 isn't worth that. Reason being it's worn out and has 100k miles on it. That is if you have one.
What I'm offering is a 35,000 mi car with tons of extras. The entire life of this car can be followed on the Rx-8 forum.
And then of course you are free to make an offer instead of an insult.
I almost ignored your post because you have a cool plane on you avitar but alas I'm a smart *** and can't help myself.
On top of that if I can't get a good offer I'll just take it out and burn it to the ground. I don't really care. You think it's special I think it's a tool.

Just looked and it's still in my driveway.
I know I said there would be more pictures, maybe today I can drag parts out.
If not then I know some guys will be around over the weekend.

Can't believe you're the first to notice it.
That is a one of a kind built from scratch car for Wilt Chamberlain.
I was the co-builder on it with Martain Slater of Lyncar in UK.
It took 5 years to build and when done Wilt had two bad knees a bad hip.
He drove it about 50 mi. I drove it about 250 and it sat in hid garage until he died in 1999. It sat 3 more years until given to the Hall of Fame in Mass.
It didn't fit in the door so they let it rot in a garage for 5 or 6 years.
They sent it back to me for restoration about 2 years ago.
It now jooks better then ever.
Both fuel systems have been pluged from sitting and the pumps are inside the tub next to the fuel cells. I have had to lift the rear bodywork to open the access panels.
It has a SBC with mostly NASCAR parts hooked to a ZF transaxle. Geared for 192 at 7500 RPM. The ali tub has all Lola mag uprights and center hub knock offs.
If your 7 foot I can get you a good deal on the car.

I really am getting sick of it in the driveway.
We did the first S2 installation today and had to work at the curb.
I want to buy a nice 4 door Jaguar to put there.
I'm to old to put up with an Rx8.
Someone is going to get a lot of parts.

Well I am 6'4" - and it does have shades of ultimate aero - but I have the feeling its costs a bit to run. Must have been fun to design and build that guy.
