Hi Everyone. It's been taking a while but there is some progress. See photos of how the CF bumpers attach to the car. Still not finished with sealing the brackets in place with more CF.

Hi Everyone,

Hi Frogman. I was thinking of trying to ship to the US but after freight and any other hidden cost, anything I could make would reach the prices of local products there.

Hi Everyone. I haven't added anything in a while because I had to move my shop and build a new office/workshop to move into. Same location just more permanent and organized. I did not know I'd last more than 2 years as a start up car shop.
My RX7 is now into it's 3rd paint shop as I was not happy with the 1st 2. We will be receiving the body soon and we'll begin reassembly. I'll be sure to start posting again once we start. |

Hi Everyone.
Life has a way of upsetting the best of plans. Oct. 28 I came out of heart bypass surgery. https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...d499d3168e.jpg This is my 1st post in quite a awhile. I'm ok but have to take things really slow. More stuff that I've done coming. Midnight Mechanic...all carbon fiber. I did not put any metal. Just nomex honeycomb. |
Hi again everyone,
I've actually made templates. While sick and groggy I don't think is a good idea for porting my 12A. Pictures below. I don't have the "after" of the exhaust port yet but I will put it in here and I hope I get some positive comments. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...022ba98066.jpg Before https://cimg7.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...2b67767cc1.jpg After |
Keep at it! Creative work like yours is good for the Mind and Body! Best of luck, thanks for the updates.

Hi Everyone. It's been a while. I hope I have not been forgotten. Hopefully I will be remembered by a few.
Just a few photos of where I'm at : https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...301d998c6b.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...3d0d09aaa3.jpg https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.rx7...66d10dc4a1.jpg Going real slow. I was wondering if any of you gentlemen could point me to where I could buy or order a fuel tank. It's the last piece I need. There are no wrecks here where I am as it was not imported into my country by Mazda.If its a wreck yard or parts dealer hopefully near where my buddy is at. California, So Cal LA area. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank You All, madmen |
Your car is coming along nicely!!! You've done a great job thus far! Keep up the great work!! As for a fuel tank, I would post a want to buy ad in the classifieds section here on the forum. They are out there still. No longer available new I;m afraid.

Beautiful work indeed. As far as a fuel tank, I am wondering why you haven't made one out of carbon fiber already ;)

I could but I need special fuel proof or gasoline proof epoxy for that. Then I'd have to pay hazardous duty to import it. Not worth it. madmen |
