That's a dope front air dam/plow. Your interior looks great. I just picked up a 74 rx3 and it's nowhere near as clean as yours...

So I sold my REPU and blue RX4 and went out and picked this up. The car is all original and still has it's factory 12A Twin dizzy motor in it. The car didn't run when I found it, but it only needed a carb rebuild and a fuel pump. After that it's been all good and running. I hope to get the body work done pretty soon but for now it looks good enough.

Pic's of when I found it.

And pic's of it now.

Is it ME ..... or do a set of nice rims just turn a chump into a CHAMP in no time flat?

To each their own man. I tried the steelies for a little while. But after putting the REVOLUTIONS on it there will be no going back. I just don't like the stock look. That's for someone else to have. Not Me.....

did you repaint the wheels or just clean them?

Very nice car and cool wheels! :tu:

I guess it has been a long time since I've updated the thread. A little has changed on the cars since January. The Orange car is now a running car, but still needs a driveline to be driveable. Little things keep slowing me down. But hopefully soon I can get that done. I was hung up on finding a yoke for the rear, but just got one this past week. So I guess I'm just being lazy now. The green car has seen a pretty drastic change though. It's gone from "PARTS CAR" to a very respectable driver. I'm hoping to finish up the disk brake upgrade in the coming months and get the interior done in time for Sevenstock. If not I'm sure the car will still make the event. Just a nice cruiser as is though. Still waiting on the reproduction stripes to show up to finish off the look.
