chibikougan's little gem
Location: Great Falls Montana

Purchased for $500.
Ground some rust off it to store it until I could get at the project. Ended up being my main project at the moment. Budgeting and trying to get some room in my shop as to not burn the place down while doing some welding.

You got a sympathy vote :biggthumpup:

As awesome as Mel's SA is, in my mind, "old school" is defined as before the SA RX-7's were introduced, despite the RCC contest rules. So you win by default :cheers2:

Just was looking back from when my rx8 won in February 2011 and found this....

"Q: Anything in the pipeline for another ROTM win?
Haha well if I ever get time to work on it I've got a 1st gen that's going to get a s5 motor I've already built and will be turboed at some point. Should be a fun car once it's all done, just needs A LOT of work."

Just thought that was pretty cool.

FC Zach 01-24-2013 11:36 PM

chibikougan 01-29-2013 01:09 AM
