Looks like a camaro and a bmw had a kid. kinda ugly but cool. An dont hate the 12a its not the best but tuned right they can scare the pants off you. my rx 7 1983 is probably lighter and leaks oil bad but it still kicks ass in the local street drift races. an noe that i have it hitting over 60 mph in a city block im happy till i get the 5 grand to finish my 13B build

Aren't there 4 repus at Charles' house?

Red, vert, turbo, and black?

Not sure, but one might be a Courier, not a Repu. Charles can confirm I'm sure.

I thought you said you couldn't weld? :squint:

djmtsu 01-05-2014 06:33 PM

Wasn't me :-)

A friend did the cutting and welding.

That is the master plan. Engine is broken down and awaiting seals. Frame is repaired, need to pick the car up and bring it back home.

The rear axle is the ONLY major piece of work that needs to be done. Its going to be almost 60 degrees this weekend, so maybe we can get that done.

Buy a heater and no more excuses :lol:

I have one! Last time I used it, it got up to about 88 degrees in the garage. Then I was too hot!!

Build problems....
