Second Fortune

 

Boring white didn't last long

This one decided to take a lot of RC branding. 

I have enough street cars, but this one seems a bit less dimensionally challenged now. Hide the lines enough and change is good. 

Mounting the Rocket Bunny FD for it's third outing in 6 years.  

Fortune in the making

 

Finally ... I have my hands on an ABC Hobby+Addiction Mazda RX7 Veilside Fortune FD. 

When I lived in Japan, I had the experience of working with the Ex-Fast and Furious Tokyo Drift FD and other cars brought back to Japan by Newera imports. 

The hero cars from veilside and the stories behind them were part of real life. 

So why didn't I buy the real Veilside FD. Well I wanted to build my own RX-7. 

And that I did. a couple of times. 

and now those days are pretty far behind. the RC build can start. 

Can't wait to get this to a point where it can be bolted together.
