LS9 RX7 FC

Started out as a simple sleeper that is becoming a monster...

This started with the basic curbside Tamiya drift kit but I wanna show off the motor so I opened up the engine bay and stuffed in the whole ZR1 drivetrain. I will be making the engine bay out of styrene sheet and lots of putty work. I'm also planning a full cage with a stripped interior

Lol, thanks. I hated the fact that the motor was just for show on the undercarriage. Drove me nuts because I like to do a display with my cars.

Now that's a sin in my book haha. Sounds pretty neat though!

This has been put on hold for about a week to finish up a jeep for my girlfriend to being to college. Her favorite car is a Jeep wrangler and her fav color is blue so I got my work cut out for me.

I'll be back at this soon

Here's a slight update. Started the engine bay, it's going to be real simple and clean. Which means minimal wiring, and a very light weathering. I currently have the wheel tubs cut and taped in place but no pics as of right now.
