Nice!!

Very nice job on the paint. I have been painting with my step-dad for 4 years now(started when i was 16) and it is alot of work!! Sanding is the most head pounding of all. Can't sand to hard but got to sand hard enough. Very very nice i have to give you big props on this. I was thinking about painting the rx-7 im fixing to buy a blue along those lines. but thats way off(buying a wrecked rx-7 and fixing it up).

Very nice! Car looks beautiful! But why not paint the lower front air dam? I hate to offer a suggestion on something that already looks so nice, but I do think that would be a nice finishing touch.

Whoa, first post I read after introducing myself and I am looking right at another Hokie, and one with a beautiful FD no less. +1 on the great paint job. Is the RX-7 in Bburg for the winter? I'd love to see it in person.

And check out the car club of VT (CCVT). http://www.carclubvt.com/

Mostly good guys, the car show and cookout are the weekend of the 22nd, good times.
