Morning Ian. Car looks great as ever, and I have to say your garden makes a great photo spot! |

Nice car, the Elford kit is period. So I wouldn't be ashamed of it.
The car certainly can use the extra power.

Lovely car, I've always had a soft spot for those. The Elford Turbo makes it just about perfect in my book!

I'm surprised 540 cars were converted -i would have guessed barely into 3 figures?

Watching 'Pump Up The Volume' (circa 1990) with Christian Slater last night, there was a black Rx7 in it just like this. It made me smile.

Lovely wee car that.
Make sure the fueling is sorted before you go to 10psi. Those rotaries hate detonation.

Looking good Ian  . I never noticed those rather nice aero mirrors before. Did you put them on, or were they an Elford thing? Aus-market ones? ....this thread reminds me, must cut the grass ;D |
