Okay, Somebody need to make this for First Gens.

Forget the TII hood scoop look,

This style hood would be the ultimate on a 1st Gen!!

yeah ... i spent about 40 minutes looking for it after i posted ... trying to link it here ... but you're right. it's nowhere to be found. i even checked in the Other Rotary and Rotary Tech, just to see if maybe it was moved ... but no dice. it's sort of upsetting because that was great thread.

I managed to find the thread https://www.rx7club.com/forum/showth...hreadid=135899 (took me ages) but the actual website I linked doesn't exist anymore so all the pics in the thread are gone. There were heaps of cool 1st gen's on that site.
