Hello, I have a 1979 rx7 that I'm looking to find a group c or similar bodykit. Anything helps, thank you!

 

There are IMSA style bodykits on ebay for like 700$ . Not sure how good they are but if you can google the hotwheels RX7 thats the kit in the ebay listings .

 

Here you go. https://www.rotaryengineeringsb.com/...t-page/group-c

 

Thats the exact same one as the ebay one for like double the cost . Althought I trust them more to give me a working product..

 

It might look like the same kit, but they make their own.

I should note, this is the old Mariah Motorsports company.

 

Just clarifying, it is NOT Mariah Motorsports, but it IS Mariah Motorsports' old tooling.

 

I don't recall Mariah ever having that specific kit though .
The ebay kit AFIK originates from NZ , then was cloned by cheaper companys and started showing up on ebay around 2019 for 400-700$ + shipping. Mariah may have cloned this kit as well or at the very least used it to take dimensions OR they invested in restoring a old tooling that was no longer being used.

 

Subcontracted to Hartman, distributed by Mariah, which they'd done for decades. Same deal with RotaryEngineering.

I should also point out that I have nothing to do with RotaryEngineering past helping to store some of their molds in my shop. Which also happens to be the old Mariah Motorsports building.

 

Thats neat ! I'm glad the molds didn't get scrapped . Was it you who came here a few years ago to tell us about RE buying the tooling ?
