DIY Rx-7 model

How I waste my time...and now how im wasting yours

Ok. So This is how bored I was tonight. I decided to make a model of my car out of paper. It involves printing out the outline (below) and cutting along the solid lines and folding along the dotted lines. It SHOULD yield a 3D model of an Fb, but it is pretty frustrating and time consuming. Anyway, I know its pretty dumb, but I wanted to share it with my fellow First Geners


Heres the outline:


Once its all cutout, it should look something like this:


Once its all taped up, it should look something like this...Hopefuly yours will look better.

Ha ha. Fun stuff. And if you print out the model at http://www.toko.ne.jp/paper/papercraft/rx-7.zip you'll see that the badge and license plates say "SABANNA RX-7" (with a B instead of a V)... My wife is Japanese and she said "Well, that's how it's pronounced!".
