    yea, I'd like to do something like that. I think I might get serious about a rebuild and either try to do that this fall and/or winter or buy the parts and pay someone who knows what they are doing to rebuild it. I'm kind of worried I'd mess something up if I tried to rebuild it, lol. but I have heard that rotaries are easy to rebuild... we'll see.


    Anyways, decided to change up the exhaust a little. I'm debating cutting the ends to be somewhat reminiscent of the old tips where they'd be flat with the end of the car. not sure if I explained that well. I also am going to either try to polish the tips or just paint them with engine paint. anyways, here's a couple shots to give y'all an idea of what it looks like as of now.

    Rebuild and Paint Blue to match the car and wires and accessories white it would look just amazing

    ha, thanks. Someone asked if they were pegs just yesterday actually. I made them out or redbull cans. Nothing like a $5 set of center caps! I might actually end up with some in the front. I'm having trouble getting the white wheels to balance out, so I might throw the extra two Scion wheels up front for now till I can find a good deal on some better wheels that are just as cool or cooler. I'ma think about it.

    ha, that's the idea. I'm still sketched out from the man hole cover that made me do all the recent work on the car though. I drove it a little tonight, my confidence is coming back. Considering this is the second time I brought the car back to life after it basically tried to kill me while severely damaging itself, I think I'm entitled to be so cautious... even though this time was operator error, lol.
