Foose experiement on winter beater

dude who dod your paint? its only 150....hook me up

i did it in my garage
150 is thesupplies
it took a LOT of hours

you are supposed to "enhance" the body lines with a two tone paint job. you just put a slash through it. not very good at all. it looks pretty stupid like that.
not knocking your work or anything (the labour, and do-it-yourself part), but the big awkward cut line is horrible.

bah
most ppl like how it splits up teh body lines.
its not for everyone
and it took me 5 minutes to lay out the stripe.
if you dont like it, thats fine, i do.

very impressive!! hook me up with a paint job for the summer time? :thumbsup

VERY nice job man. :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup :appl:
Just needs some nice wheels. And say a K20? With a T03?

^^^ lol say k24 bottom and k20 head lsd tranny few bolt ons and he doesnt need no turbo :D

:hitit: dammmm you did that yourself :thumbsup :cool: looks sickk but definately needs soem rims

thanks guys
i appreciate the comments.
we agreed that if the motor makes it thought the winter we will throw some FD twins on it in push it to the limit.
( i really dont knwo if a 1.5 litre sohc can take even 1psi of boost from twins but we will just have to see, all in the name of expierementation and fun right!)

Yeah those turbos probably won't work very well. You might think that they will because they are coming off of a "tiny" 1.3L rotary engine, and your engine is 1.5L, but a 1.3L rotary burns twice as much air/fuel as a 1.3L piston engine because it fires every revolution of the Eccentric shaft, whereas a four cycle piston engine fires every second revolution... this is why some people consider a rotary to be a 2.6L

The quality of the job looks great, but I personally don't like the line.
:thumbsup still though!! :)

you know i really dont care.,..
and have you see the size of fd twins?
they are smaller than the KKK03 i was gonna use
and I am one of the few that will fight for the 2.6 litre rotary not 1.3, the thing aint a 2 stroke...
im not looking to turn this in to a race car, i just want to make people like your self shake the head and say "what the hell for?"

and i had a fully built turbo FC for a while, so i know ALL about them thanks

can you give me some tips

really nice job.
i am looking to paint my car in my garage as well.
what kind of bondo did you use?
how did you get the rust off the fender?
did you weld anything?
how did your paint come out shiny and without orange peal?

please reply so i can plan to do my car...
