My Fortune Build So Far
 
5 Attachment(s)
Thought some would be interested in watching the progress on this build, Car will be at the body shop for the next two months, this is where we are so far. In the process of pulling my RX7 Specialists upgraded motor out of my crashed 93. As well as other parts I plan to keep and install. Will have a list of other parts for sale or free as the project progresses.

My 93 Touring model was stolen and crashed. Currently stripping it of the parts I'm keeping/selling, then will probabily give the chasis away or scrap it. Pics of my 93 are on my cardomain site, link in my signature. The current pics are towards the end.

omg LHD + Fortune = Ballin!

Was going to ship the car to Adam at RX7 specialists to get my engine etc. installed, don't want to spend so much for shipping though, so am thinking about getting the work done at Staffs Auto or Forcefed Performance in Van then making the trip to Calgary once the car is running. Planning to install a WAI System(still trying to figure out my best option for this) and OMP Adaptor and Adjuster, to fully convert to a two stroke oil system.

Keep us update on more of it.............

Wonder how much it would cost to convert to LHD. Cheaper than stripping the body and putting on another car?
