Chillyb1 Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 That is excellent work, Marcos. The Vega is way too rare a subject, in my opinion. I like them and I'd like to see more of them. Your paint and detail work are, of course, outstanding. A beauty to behold. The wheels and the stance are not to my taste, but that's a personal matter. Awesome work.

Randy Kern Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 Cruz, it's too cool!! I can just hear that rotary screaming at 9,000 RPM! Beautiful and classy, all business color, and the stripes really set it off. Can't wait to see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 That is really slick Cruz! One thing though, it's missing the big block! LOL Great job on that engine too. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc @ MPC Motorsports Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) Turned out very nice!!! With builds this nice, feel free to bore us anytime. I agree with Crispy that it needs a big block. Edited September 9, 2009 by Marc @ MPC Motorsports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RodneyBad Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 WOW WEEEEEEE Looks Awesome. Perfect in every way.. Love the Rotary. Looks a little small for it but I hear they are real Screamers.. AWESOME WORK!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragline Posted September 9, 2009 Share Posted September 9, 2009 Let me be the umpteenth to say. SWEET. The color and stance are correct. I had a friend that worked at the local Auto Zone. PR guy from NY. Had a Datsun [early 80's something or other]. One day he opened the hood and there was this custom mounted, with a big Holley, ROTARY sitting in it. Took me for a ride [i had a Turbo Dodge Omni then]. GOD, did that thing move! What a racket though... In a good way. Very well done sir Bob F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rider Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Nice looking ride, I like the Gun metal gray. Given the weight to power ratio and placement of the engine that little Vega might just handle like a go-kart. I've been watching your WIP, you really struggled with the power plant, nice choice with the Wankle, what was the doner kit for the engine?

cruz Posted September 10, 2009 Author Share Posted September 10, 2009 Thanks guys, I really and humbly appreciate all your comments!! The engine came from this Monogram RX-7 Mazda kit. There were other small details added from my parts box but most of it is from this kit. Hosted on Fotki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
