The RX7 has been sitting fairly neglected since Jambo, apart from removing all the glass we haven’t paid it that much attention.

We’ve been plugging away slowly at the chassis over the last few weeks. There hasn’t been much to show for the effort that has been put in so we held back on the pics. As of today though that’s all changed.

Just received our shipment of moly, this should be enough to finish the chassis and various other bits and pieces. Will have to spend some time over Christmas putting it to good use!

We had a chance to finish off the base on Sunday. It didn’t go without a hitch though, I measured one outrigger incorrectly. Remember kids, measure twice cut once :@ We also fitted the main hoop and started trimming the right side which was slightly longer. It’s close but I’m still not happy with it.

Been a while since doing anything to the 7 seeing as we’ve kicked off the Capella again. Spent the last weekend getting jiggy with the glass – all gone now and took out 42kg of “stuff”. Of course some of that will be going back in with lexan, but nowhere near as much. Hoping to get that done in the next few weeks as the patterns are all done.
