it's still not done yet, it has to harden up for a couple of weeks before they can polish it
I can't believe I paid as much for the paint and bodywork as I paid for the car initially

Hi I was a member of this board a while back, but when my 7 broke down I kinda faded away. But I am getting it fixed and so I'm back...kinda like a drug addiction. Anyhoo nice to see the richmond rx-7 scene is still going strong.

Yeah it kinda hard to miss.
It's funny every ricer that flys down Farmington slows up a bit to see whats in the driveway.
I'll be at the Huegenot Starbucks location (its right near Forest) from 8-10
and then I'm headed up to the Broad St location

In FC news the trans shop finally got the parts but won't have the car done till early next week. That means I'll miss yet another autocross dammmnit!!
Which by the way is also a good way to meetup with the local 7 community.
This Sunday at the lot in front of RIR - go in at gate 2, spectating is free, $30 if you wanna run.
To register or just see who and what cars are running check out www.vmsc.org

Little tiny shop on the southside called Bernards.
The paint is not a 100% done yet it needs to harden up a bit so they can wetsand some of the specks out.
The body work though is outstanding, especially for the price.
Overall it'll never be a show car finish but definetly worth what I paid.
I'll post my final review when it is 100%
PM me if you want their info.

Hey guys, I just moved into Petersburg (Army@ Ft Lee) from Colorado and brought my '93 with me. Speaking of meeting the local 7 community: I'm headed to the autox with vmsc this weekend, anybody interested in a co-drive? Autocross experience is required and I'd want to work out some way of making it beneficial to both of us. I'll be trailering the car up and running SM/SM2. The car is pretty well modded but ugly: it needs bodywork and refinement on the tuning but should be fun with a GT35R, coilovers, and 4x 285-18 BFG KDWs. PM or email me at cmackh2o@yahoo.com if you are interested See you trackside.
Chris
