HEY! I like a clean engine bay..... and yes, I have hauled th engine just to clean.... and?

At least I should be in a rotary at this years DGRR... that's what's important... and mom can have a 'vert for Mothers Day.

And I have reasons for building the Turbo 'Vert as opposed to rebuilding my engine.... if I rebuild my car, the 'vert will be put off for a THIRD year... and the FD for a FOURTH year.... as sad as it is... it's time to put the FC on hold for a bit. She's nestled comfy in my garage in CT, on jackstands.... where every good rotary feels at home

That's a good reason so I'll let you pass.

Alright, getting closer. Another weekend or two and we may have it ready!

Since the last set of pics we got a few more spots strengthened on the frame, finally made a decision on the drive assembly (i think, lol) and received our new axle/bearing-set.

Slow progress but it's getting there. Should be ready for the gap, the official burden carrier!
