Im gonna update some pics this week, after years of sitting on the back burner and threatening to sell Im working nightly as time allows:

Welded up interior factory screw holes and prepping for paint, bolting in software and gauges for first startup soon. Making seat base's for a pair of seasoned alum drag seat's for joy riders on HWY. No dreams of street use this year but expect to here the Holeset spool soon :)

*car apears to be under 1600#, previous estimates where high*

Hard to apreciate what chassis builders go thru until you crawl under a car

I spent WAY to much time setting this up, looks crazy underneath.

Going to be a MONSTER!!!

Dave the Aeromotive pump, inj and suport items are under 50#, cant wait to get a battery and cell mounted. We are way under budget weight wise, may need to ad a radio for Sunday cruise's ;)

Hey you and Andy can have a competition on who can take the longest to get their cars back together. :D

I went from doing a complete build over winter, working till 3am to I cant remember when I started this one :(

But Andy's building a car that could prob. win a bunch of best in shows when it's done. This is more of a drag car.

Russ started this WAY before Andy's...and like Andy RX, this thing will be a beast!

Wait....Cryptic still owns an RX-7???? I thought that went away years ago when the build thread sort of just went away.

Good to hear that you are back on the project Russ, can't wait to see this car done!

Keep up the progress and updates!
