74 pig cheek, supercharged 12a rotary 02

[bcthomas122279]

Turns out that my super clean, rust free 74 from texas has was actually a bondo sculpture of a real car. The good news is that most of the shell is in good condition with the bolt on pieces of the body best suited for the recycle center.

I started stripping paint last week and decided against salvaging the front fenders, even with turbo flares they are too mangled. I was lucky enough to find a full set of pig cheeks for an awesome price that should sort out a lot of my bodywork issues. I also intend to run a glass glass hood and trunk lid and possibly doors.

I'm trying to decide on an interesting color to pair with the Alpina satin black style paint job.

As for the rotary (gasp!!) I'm getting an 85 rx7 from Andy Stuckey that is said to be a screamer with a fresh rebuild and supercharger.

Wheels will be 15" alplina style over some upgraded brakes.

I've got eibachs and billy sports stashed away for it and plan on refurbing the subframes with an 80% lock-up lsd from a racer friend.

Wish I could have seen through that stuff man

With that motor it's going to be a screamer.

not only that but the rotary is sposed to be much lighter, so it will handle like a kart, too....
