DIY, V8 RX-7

In light of my project a friend email me this and I felt obliged to share! I do like this quote "While yes this car terrified me on camera, not for lack of capability, but rather for the potentially dire consequences of an otherwise small accident!"

I have to tell you, that was one of the best 12 minute youtube videos that I have ever seen.  I love that kids car.  I drove a 1979 RX-7 back in collage that looked a lot like that one.  Mine was a lot more stock.

Very cool video.

360 magnum engined RX that turns low 12s and can drive cross country. Doesn't look half bad either.

I saw this video on Facebook. You got to hand it to the kid, he's smart, the car is very fast, but lacks in the 'aesthetic' value and safety features.  :scared: I loved the video and the car just has that "I don't care what you think" feature. Like a tuner on steroids!!  :roflsmiley: :smilielol: :roflsmiley:

I like it!  Looks like something from Mad Max!!!!  :thumbsup:
1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.
