Thanks guys.
I moved into a house here in Alabama with a 2 car garage so I brought my daily driver which is a 1994 Miata "r package" and my other little project which is a 1985 RX7 lovingly titled the "Hooptie". Since I couldn't work on my S13 I have been fooling around with the hooptie.
Here is what I have been up to...
Here is what it looked like when I got it:
The car was originally a 12a car but had a rebuilt street ported 13b swapped in with a holly 465 carb that I'm still trying to get to run right.
So I got some adapters to run my wheels but the wheel studs stuck out past the adapters so I had to do some grinding then reinforcement:
Which let me do this:
So the suspension was feeling kind of old so I got some new struts and bushings and got to work:
Then one night some alcohol and spray paint got mixed and this happened:
Then I moved:
I got bored one day and decided to clean up some of the rusty spots and started with the radiator duct:
Which expanded to the front piece and the vent piece in front of the windshield:
Then the Hooptie got naked cuz it heard the bishes love it:
And more painting happened:
Then I test fit the parts to see what they would look like. Nothing bolted here:
Then I took the parts back off and set them in a pile of shiny:
Then went back to painting:
Stripping the door aka pita:
And painted hood:
Then 100+ degree weather hit and I had to wait for it to cool down, so that is where I am at with that...
THEN....
This is coming towards the end of the week:
So that combined with moving and new job is why updates are slow on this thread...
