This! Its my Rx7 FC vert turbo II.

Its a lovely car, just needs a smidge of tlc here and there and it will be special....
So first thing I ended up doing was sticker bombing the center console to add a bit of colour :)

And what I have been busy doing today....
The back has been fully stripped and unfortunately for a daily makes It a little rough IMO so decided I would give it a spruce up:
So a trip to b&q to get some thinish fibreboard (to reduce adding further weight)
And did this:

Once I got it all to shape/size....I then cracked on putting it together and adding hinges as Its such a lairy shape I wouldnt have got it in without being able to fold it up....:

By doing so though it meant I could have a small tool hole at the back where the spacesaver should be:

And a flap to hide the scissor Jack (when i put one in):

And finally cut out some carpet fabric and laid it over the top :)
