just wanted to tease u guys again with my project. this time im working on the sideskirts. i used sheet metal and welded the pieces together. still not complete though. ill update again tomorrow. thinking about adding a vent on the front fenders similar to the FD's.

questions welcome, of course!

enjoy:

 

every time I see that car it freaks me out man.

In a good way, I mean.

 

everytime i see that monster i think its the spy rx7 concept. lookin awsome

 

more pics?

 

Yeah, add the vent. Smexy

 

your a pioneer. I respect.

 

once its painted it will look so GOOD!!! just dont rice it out with airplane wings!
any motor work? or just body?

 

more pics cant wait for the paint job what color

 

Im wondering if you are keeping either the fb small notch/bodyline(on the door) or are going to try to keep FD shapes like on the front fender?

P.S Big fan of the swap,I always wondered if the front could be swapped but that WITH the rear...WOW!

 

vary nice.

 

I think you should juts make the whole car you have into a fd(bodywork). Just what a nice clean looking FD would look like. I am Very impressed with your work. Good job and God bless

 

Do you have any plans for the roof? I showed my girlfriend, who loves Rx7's too... SCORE!!, and she pointed out that the lower body looks beautiful but with the stock roof area it will look out of place.

 

I would like to see some close up pics fo your rocker mods to see how they blend/flow into the rest of the body. Props on pioneering such a radical kit and brining it to fruition. After installing my widebody kit, I have a sense of how much labor/planning is involved, but you have gone far beyond the work it took to install mine. Keep up the great work.

 

lookin great! keep the pics comin!

 

thanks for all the support and comments, guys! greatly appreciated. like i said before, this is not a "just for fun" project. to me, it is an accomplishment. i've always wanted to create a car and i feel this is a great start/practice. i really need to hurry though so i can have it all cherried out for HOT IMPORT NIGHTS LOS ANGELES. i wish to see you guys there. i had just finished the other sideskirt today, and i started working on the brake vent. and yes, ill post pics when the vents are done. stay tuned.........

 

Looking good bro. Makes me want to build a new one

 

Looks like a civic with a wannabe rx7 kit.

 

yeah.... because civics have Turbo'd engines and RWD. let's see your car?

 

hahaha, got him there.

 

I have no clue how you see this as a civic. Shut up and stop being such a downer. This guy has put a LOT of work into this car and it really shows.

BTW, great work so far. You must have a lot of patience to do this quality of work. Hope to see some overall pics just before it goes to paint and then after. But I have one question, how did you mold the rear fenders? I know they were custom, but did you use styrofoam to get a base mold or what? Also I assume your going to fill in that body crease on the door?

 

yeah, i used styrofoam to shape the base mold. its the easiest thing to do except for the fact that its really messy and hard to clean up. and make sure you wear a respirator! and yes, i will be filling in the crease on the door. that would be the last thing.
