My 1st gen build up thread! 12at in a 83 rx7
I have been sitting on this project for over a year! with little progress being made. I am now making alot of progress and want to be able to show you guys what I am up to. I have had people ask me about this project and I feel I owe it to you and myself to finish it!
The car is a 83 base model rx7, It was brown on brown. It has roll up windows no sunroof, and drum rear brakes (for now).
I have removed all the interior and windows, getting it ready for paint. I dont want to miss anything. I have also been stripping off all the tar on the floorboards and in the trunk. It is at my friends bodyshop right now where I am stripping of the org. paint. It is going all the way to metal, It is almost done at this point I just need to get below the moldings on the sides and replace bumpers. I have pictures that i will post up soon.
Thanks for looking Hope to have alot to show you soon!

Much to update! I have my car @ the body shop and have been putting many hours into it . I have almost all the paint removed! the fenders are off, cleaning and sealing behind them. The engine bay was sanded, and sandblasted in areas, It has been painted. I have pictures that I will be showing very soon of the build. I will keep you guys posted!

I hope those fenders are straight enough to use, or if not, that the dents aren't too bad to fix You've got your hands full with that car, though. You need to get rid of the 12at, though, and do a TII swap. Trust me on that one.
