nice choice of color. me like it. Rims??? I'm not sure if I like it. I will wait until when the engine is installed and the car is dropped to the ground

1974RX-4 10-27-10 07:56 PM

Thanks Wacky and yes the engine is not there or gas tank,sure they will add some weigth but I am waiting on the engine interiors etc to see how much I have to drop the car.

Siraniko 10-27-10 08:11 PM

el_rotary 10-28-10 01:49 AM

teddyrx2 10-28-10 04:31 AM

Siraniko 10-28-10 07:59 AM

Dood I think he meant HIS back (spine), not the cars... Lol

john smack 10-28-10 09:39 AM

This looks good! Really like the color you chose

1974RX-4 10-28-10 02:26 PM

El Rotary I think I can help you find a windshield for your Rx4.Teddy I don`t mind at all. Everybody thinks that I suffer a bad accident like I fall from a plane without a parachute:lol: but the true is my doctor doesn`t know the reason. I know is some kind of spinal cord Neurologic deterioration. First was my cervical I had 3 disk replace and hold it with a titanium plate and 5 screws then less than a year later I need 4 disk replace on my lumbar there is the rest of the screws (12 more) another titanium plate and 2 eigth inch rods to fusion together. My good friend Luis Gt (73 RX3) have something similar but in his case he indeed suffer an accident on the navy,anyway long story short I still walking and kicking not like Chuck Noris:lol: but I am alive.

el_rotary 10-28-10 07:30 PM

Sounds good, pm what infor you have on the windshield please. I have been looking for some time now. Are those fender and trunk badges stock? I havent seen an rx4 with those until now.
