Babes would just hide the sexiness of the car.

If I remember Correctly, Rich had offered to take off his filter for some engine bay shots I was doing, and then I said "hey... Let's try spinning the impeller!"

Congrats Rich, I of all people know how much money, blood, sweat…lots of sweat, and some tears here and there that went into this car. This is more than well deserved - Thanks for being a large reason of why this community is still afloat! It's about time you got this thing in a magazine!

BTW, everyone go BUY a copy and SUPPORT MODIFIED MAG! No more scanning of articles, unless you want this great magazine to end up like Sport Compact Car.

While I was at Penn Station waiting for my train to arrive, I decided to kill some time and went inside the magazine store. Lo and behold I come across your ride in the magazine. Congratulations on a great article and photography that they did to your ride!

Love the alignment of the front end body parts...thing looks dead on perfect. Which seems to be rare for the FD to have perfect lines. B-E-A-Utiful.

That's because Rich spent the extra coin and bought an OEM 99spec front bumper.

It is great to see when someone gets a well-deserved recognition.
Especially when is someone that shares our passion for the RX-7’s.
Congratulations Rich!!! Keep up the good work.


Let me see what can I do to get it posted on the Discovery Turbo facebook page ! (only if you are interested...)

Nice write up Rich. Love the rims, what size rim/tire set up are they as they fill up the wheel well nicely.

This will be my 6th year going. It draws roughly 125 cars and 200 or more people, Herblenny could give more precise numbers. Well worth the trip for any rotary fan.
