carro Posted January 2, 2012 Share Posted January 2, 2012 Here is my the first post of the year and also the first finished build in well over a year being that my last finished model was back in February of 2010. This was started over 3 years ago and has been painted twice and I lost both mirrors so altough they are missing Im considering this one done. And now for the pics.

Erik Smith Posted January 5, 2012 Share Posted January 5, 2012 Nice, smooth, clean build. The background is making me dizzy though. I, too, like seeing some imports posted here. For the most part, they are few and far apart - and usually slide pretty fast down the threads line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! yea you are right, they do slide pretty fast down the threads but with so many brand new builds getting posted everyday its easy to see why.

MyBradKeselowski Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Thats a perfect RX-7 really like the color. What shade of blue is that? You really did nail it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboKitty Posted January 8, 2012 Share Posted January 8, 2012 Very nice, the paint came out great and I like how you paid attention to detail by painting the window trim flat black to simulate weatherstrip. It's a detail often overlooked on modern car builds that have a lack of chrome LOL. This is the Tamiya kit, right? Do you have any pics of the engine? I'd love to see more, especially if they look fresh off the showroom floor like this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
