Default Dyna Riders-What is your "other" project!

I see a lot of user names that are car related. I know that are some really talented folks here. What is your other interests or hobbies?
Here is my other love

Should be finished before summer. I have said this for the last few years, but this time it is possible.

Lets see what you got!

Shawn

LOL, nice list man.

My current project is my little 85 Mazda Rx-7. If you ever need proof that the Japanese used to build fun cars, albeit build them very poorly, this is it. Thing was a rustbucket that my father in law gave me 2 years ago, completely tore it down, now about 75% of the way to getting it back together. Hopefully have it on the road this summer (if I can figure out how to get a carb'd rotary through CT emissions )

What I started with:


What I've got now:

My other project is whatever my wife tells me it is for that weekend. Usually it changes from week to week.

Nice looking 63... I built a 70 from the ground up about that same color when I was high school. I would like to build a notchback if I can find one with out rot for a decent price.

Not really a project cuz it's completed...my '03 Z06. It's modded with ram air, ported/polished trottle body, cam, stage IIe heads, long tube headers, exhaust, Textralia clutch, CF heat extractor hood, upgraded brakes and some other stuff.

I bought it new in '03 and have about $15K in performance and appearance mods.

I also race slot cars twice a week for my hobby...1/24 and 1/32 scale.
