thanks. maybe i can get some pics up form the show. i dont remember much, and it was hot as hell but i snapped a few shots..
that makes about 100 of us by now i think
no tilt bed for me. i dont want to overdo it on the body mods...
when i get some time off from work i will definately post some up.
working, i will get pics as soon as possible. u can go on minitruckinweb.com and check out the show coverage for west coast nationals 2010 and there r pics of my truck on there...
it was pretty fun to stand back and watch peoples reactions when they walked by my truck. they would walk by and notice that it was doored, then look in the engine bay and ask their friends what kind of engine that it had and they all would shake their heads cuz nobody knew lol. then they would look inside and see the rhd and the rx7 dash and kinda just stare at it for a minute or two and then walk away lol...
i think it made a good impression. i just wish i remember anything after jello shots. damn socal <severed ties> lol
this reminded me of this thread
goddamn i want an original repu soooo bad...
found a few pics online from the show...
not bad for a truck that was thrown together in 2 days eh? lol
time to get this bad boy runnin..

f**kin sweet!!!! that satin black dont look too bad especially for being rattle can 
thank you. i ordered a few things for it today. still waiting on a damn turbo mani...
trust me it looks a lot better in pictures lol. gotta tear back into this b***h and get all the body lines better and welded in better....
but thanks
Pictures from the show look great... now just get on that turbo manifold so we can see it run!found a few pics online from the show...

If I could weld worth a s**t.. I'd fab you up a manifold just so this thing would get finished!
well the truck isnt going to be just one color when its finished, but a blue close to that will be used if i keep diggin the color scheme i have picked out..
if i had a tig welder or could tig weld it would already be done. guy is supposed to come by today and pick up a 12a rotary i have layin around and mock up the mani, but this has supposed to happen a million times, so we will see...
been hella busy at work, so not much time for anything lol...
i might be pulling the engine and have it ported and rebuilt and painted and polished and reassembled so i dont have to worry about any issues with it running, but i havent decided yet...

well if you are rebuilding it might as well beef it up too 
parts for that have got to be cheap right? oh and i am most impressed with how it sits. can you slide under a big rig yet? have you thought about a cali cruiser ever?

we'll be here waiting
it all depends on what parts u buy, but compared to a piston engine, since there are less parts to a rotary, u can obviously build them cheaper yes, but i dont think i need a screamer in a gutted out truck lol. i wanna drive this thing not spin circles at stop lights when i try to take off..well if you are rebuilding it might as well beef it up too
and im sure it would prolly make it under a semi, yes...
what about em?
umm, is that good or bad? i dont get it...
Truck looks sick homie!
