Cool So ya say ya luv ur rex, eh?

So ya say you love your rex, that right bunky? Betcha don't have a wall like this...

I added two new photos to it today (bottom right and mid-left) and thought about you guys. The older pics are from when it was new. The Car and Driver cover's an original.

Hiya, boys and girls, da ZooKeeper's back in town for a few days.

Hey... who owns a banana yellow 1st gen with twin black racing stripes in the El Paso, TX area? Anybody on this forum? If so, I saw you

WTF...? I've been trying all day to post with a photo and keep getting network errors. Somethng going on I don't know about? I finally loaded the photo to my own website and ref'd it here.

This might be old news (if it is - don't read it; if it is and you read it - don't go bitching at me, I told ya not to read it )but I got a mailing from Victoria British saying they now have online ordering. In case you didn't know...

It's a plastic model I got many, many moons ago. It's no longer available. HobbyLink in Japan (http://www.hlj.com/) has a few plastic and diecast SA models...

Also, check www.rotorhead.ca - he had some diecast models available before. (you're welcome, Manntis!)

Well, it's a little on the obsessive side, but not overly so. The RX-7 is an easy car to love.
