Its been a while since i've done anything on the 929 was waiting on some plastics to come back from the chromers. Some badges and rear quater/door vent covers front bonnet strip.

I got some time to start installing the new shiny bits.

A bit more progress, had the interior done just waiting on the door handles to come back from getting painted.

Nearly there now mate, it looks fantastic. Look forward to seeing the finished product.

Whoa! Great job so far, car is looking sensational!! Definitely a keeper. I have always been a fan of the "flat front" on these as opposed to the pointy nose look.

Colour goes brilliantly with the trim. Keep the pics coming

Thanks guys just put all the shiny trims back on, but still waiting on the bumpers, but not far now. :tu:

Yes it does I'm very happy with the colour choice! Hopefully will get the bumpers back before xmas and only the motor to refresh and she will be complete. :tu:

Oz gets all the best Mazda's..(sad face) In NZ we only get rust buckets, and that's if you can even find one..

Chin up kiwi808 you never know when you come across a minta!

A small up date, I thought I'd do something totally different when you lift up the bonnett and BAM you see this. Not all will like it but its a bit different and not usually seen on an old VC motor. :wink:

Hmmm, that is interesting!

Is that rocker cover air brushed or wrapped? Approx how much to get it done like that?
What colour are you going to do the air filter assembly and the engine block?

rx7s2 · **Posted:** Tue Feb 05, 2013 6:15 am

Its actually hydro dipped than coated in candy clears. Its a bit of a process approx $400-450 depending on condition of tappet. Block is going matt black and air filter I think I will go small round chrome or get the original one done as well.

A bit more progress happening when time permits. Got my bumpers centres back ( Great result by Restoremaz) and assembled. I've installed the rear bar, looks great. I'm yet to put the front bar on, next few days I hope. I'll post some pics up when I get the front bumper bolted on.

Well here is its maiden venture out to our All Japanese Day since I completed her, it was a bit wet but turned out to be a great day. I think I'll have to drop the back end down a bit.

rx7s2 · **Posted:** Tue Jun 11, 2013 6:41 am

And some more pics

RestoreMaz · **Posted:** Thu Jun 13, 2013 2:28 am

Came out very nice :tu:

Looks great, but agree that it needs a little bit more low, especially in the back
