Project RX-7

Well like I said I'll try to get up some pictures, but I did one better, here's a link to my RX-7's webpage on cardomain. I'll try to keep everyone updated on how things are going with my project, of course I'll add pics and descriptions as things get completed. Until then check out my cardomain page and enjoy, thanks for checkin it out.

THat dent on the seam of the door is no big deal, just a fender replacement really. The door can stay and damage will look minimal, most of it seems to be on the fender.

You need to get that engine down to shortblock and clean all the parts individually if you want it to look nice. Add some paint and it makes it look a 1000 times better.

I've found replacement doors, with power windows. I'm going to need a new harness with them, but 175 for both doors, glass, and motors, it's not a bad deal. As far as the body kit goes, I'm going to be using the RE-Amemyia wide body, with the headlight conversion.

I can't say I like one RX better then the other, because well I didn't really get to drive the FC in stock form, except around the block a couple times to make sure things worked. Other then that it's been in my back yard, and torn apart, being worked on. Either way I'm satisfied with my purchase of my FC, in the future I'm hoping to get a hold of a numbers matching 1st, and 3rd gen RX-7. The reason I say numbers matching is for the collector value. Give them about 10 years, maybe 20 for the FD and I can bet you that, all original numbers matching FC's will probably double in value. Anyways I'll keep people posted from time to time.
