So this is YOUR Bro's car Wacky? If so, nice ride. I like the way they tied your constant heckling into the article too. Good read, and great ride.

And the wacky touch is very impressive - to say the least!

Good to see some old school cars getting featured too.

Excellent work!

thanks guys. Credit goes to my bro 79Seven (Dave) for keeping a cool head especially when tools are flying in different directions

. He also kept the small garage refrigerator filled with cold heines.

And to my loving wife and kids for not bugging me despite I spend more time in the garage instead of the family room.

Now, hand me my grammy award.

Thats a 74 RX-4, much sexier than the 76 RX-4.

thats on the wagon but the 74 sedans came with small bumpers AND the thick *** rubber bumper protector. Then in 76, it came with big bumpers and unsunk grills. I had a 74 and 76 RX-4 (at the same time) but sold them. Too bad that digi cams were not available.

Wackyracer, you're bro's car is off the hook. That's what I am striving for my rx2 to look like. Nice job to you and your bro. Has he ever ran it down the quarter and if so what were his times?
