    This was an awesome build. The color and carbon fiber, and the detail work made this car look fantastic

  • @JS-1983

    Great work, nice colour and those black trims on sides make it look more realistic.
    That "carbon hood" looks good too, just perfect wheels 😎

    Yet another absolutely fantastic job! What a beautiful paint finish! I also really love the tiny details you do on these cars.
    I think Mazda RX7s are increasing in value as they're very rare today. People will always love a classic sports car. These sold very well in the USA apparently.

    Hey Rob beautiful job love the paint and carbon fiber!! Maybe your foot long hot dog jar works better cause there is more water so it stays hotter for a long period of time. Take care and can't wait to see the next build

  • @stephaniewright4336

    Anytime I'd prefer these educational 'TH-cam' videos. It's interesting to listen and watch. Especially if I'm in the mood, to want to restore stuff/appliances. In fact how to restore anything.📹

    The chromed Mazda badge in the front is fantastic. I'd also say that gold wheels would probably look as good given the colour of the windows.
    P.s. since you asked - previous camera angle was better for me, but if the new set up works better for you h excellent, keep it that way. Cheers!

    The carbon fibre is a nice, fancy touch Rob; don't often see it on a diecast car.
    The new camera angles and production are excellent. There wasn't a lot weong with the old style but this is better all round - looks great.👍👌😁
    Cheers for now,
    Dougie.
    P.S. Need to get a padlock on your hammer drawer.😁

    In the '80s, I used to work for a small college, and some of the students from well-to-do families had the RX-7. They were a thing back in the day.
    My favorites are the '70s and '80s restorations, because those are the cars from real life I remember most.
    Great job!
    Do you think the hot caustic soda solution could be used to remove paint from plastic? Have you tried this? Just wondered.

  • @rjshread
    @rjshread 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love that the mbx wide rx7 used the same base as the mbx narrow version, meaning, that they had to fit wider wheels which then filled the arches, so just like the real wide car the arches were actually needed... Normally they just make a new cast, don't they.. so I live the authentic reason for the body kit "we fitted wider wheels"

    Nice! Ah, the '80s RX-7. A guy I knew in high school had one. Did he mention that it had a rotary engine every time he had the _slightest_ opportunity? Yes. Yes he did. He seemed to think girls would find it particularly impressive, poor deluded boy. :)
