RICCI PARTRIDGE'S '86 RX-8 SS


It's not pretty but it runs great. Started out as a stock 1986 rx7 base model with sport suspension. It now has a 1985 sbc 350 with a 2004r. Both are completely stock.


During this process it gained a turboII rear end and half shafts, turboII drive shaft, seats, mirrors, hood (all turboII), and many other little goodies I had in my stock pile.


This was all done at a mobile home park with only hand tools and a car port (and a really pissed off park manager!).


All of this I only gained 200 additional lbs.


Ran it in the 1/4 and got a 13.9!!! Have less than $1500. in it, and of a ton of time. It is still street legal and daily driven. Now I have a LT1 to put in it......


NOW he's got one with an LT-1!!!

GOOD JOB RICCI!!!
