I'm not gonna lie I am not a big fan of the 79-80 rx7 but, you just made me change my mined that is Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice... Great job

 

what size rear tires on it? Looks nice..

 

Very nice! Now it's time to enjoy all that hard work..

 

Beautiful SA, I'll have to dig up that build thread for some more info on it. Keep up the good work!

 

I suppose I will be the one to ask about the fender flares

love the hood thats a great touch

 

dude, it's a total stunner. not commonplace, but not overdone. i love everything about it - muffler included. i think you hit that mark!!! enjoy your car, man. if i ever make it back through Montana, i'll definitely have to look you up and buy you a beer (and take some more pics).

 

He made them on an english wheel, its in his build thread. I agree, the hood is pretty cool, something different, but not too far out.

 

Holy hell, I just got a stiffy.

You,ve done one hell'uva job, Kid.
This thread might go down in history as the only one not having negative respons, despite the obvious opportunity in the enginebay.

Top notch.
Now, on with the spec-sheet

I gotta do it...

Wheel/rubber setup! backspacing?

Looks GREAT, your car is wonderful. How's the V8 sound through the can?

 

what wheels are those? do the centers come in any other colors?

 

Hotness!

 

WOW.......... Thats about all I could think. That is EASILY my favorite SA also, no questions! Is it just me or is he not responding to some questions? lol But thats cool, keeping a low pro! LOL

 

He hardly had any posts to begin with, I don't think he spends much time here anymore. Too bad too, I like seeing builds like this with lots of metal work and restoration...

 

Hah, yeah... I'm kinda anxious to learn about the wheel setup...

Hopefully he sticks around.

Edit: Durr... I should have looked a little better, as stated in his other thread: "My wheels are 15X8 with 225/50 and they come out ot be 1/2 taller over all than stock. Backspace is about 5 inch or +15mm offset so they have a nice lip."

 

Are there details anywhere on how to accomplish those sunken (or tucked) bumpers? Thanks.
