love reading stories like this
the only gripe i have is changing it to yellow and the  wheels it begged to stay stock ;)

This is a beautiful car!  I only hope my RX4 will look as decent when completed!

I dug this up for somebody to look at and thought I would get some this years  pictures added to show the cars still alive ok.

It\'s still running well, giving no problems at all and was out being used as a daily as recently as 3 days ago, not only has it done varied shows this year including Custom/ Hot Rod shows where it\'s been well accepted.

Also had a trip to the Netherlands this year putting 700 faultless miles on it and probably being the only RX-4 to ride in the shuttle and was out being used as a daily as recently as 3 days ago before getting tucked up in the garage again, but not for long as I love driving this car at every opportunity, always said it would not be a trailer queen or an ornament  :3gears-rh .

Great deal Clive... the 4 looks great Sir!

Good to see you here again Berny, hope your well.

I\'m told by the guys at Racing Beat that the Sevenstock move was a great success, well done :chat

You have got to get that Drag strip up n running though that i\'m told is there, so you can show off some real Rotary power for next year ;)

What a beauty i think the colour change may upset the purists but it looks like it was meant to be that colour,and at the end of the day its your car so do what ever you like.

Just seen this thread about your lovely RX4 Clive, it\'s really nice. The yellow works too. Good to hear of one on the road.

I think Clive\'s is actually the only one on the road at the moment:eek:

Defiantly up n running and on the road, been using it as my daily over the last few weeks and racked up 750 miles proving it\'s certainly no ornament :driving

Perhaps I should have "driven and enjoyed" written as a script on the back :D

It will be at Rotorstock next week :Thumbsup!

Park it with steves for most awesome photos :D

I\'ve been waiting to say this but today I did the deal to pick up my very own RX4 (and maybe another little project too ;))... It\'s not far away from being roadworthy So I\'ll be joining you on the road soon Clive... It\'s got one hell of a personal history and im sure you\'ll all know the car so I\'ll get a thread going about it when I get a mo :)

Well done, I\'ll look forward to the thread starting.

I\'m bringing the RX-4 to Rotorstock so you will see it in the flesh

Terri, I\'m confused (nothing new there then:3Confused)

So is it an RX-4 project or as per your other post an RX-3 project, or both?
All the best Clive

gixergirl777

Um... Yup both as it happens, an awesome RX4 and a long term RX3... I haven\'t got the cars home yet but will post more when I do :)

As this thread is a record of MY RX-4\' ownership  I thought it would be fitting to put up pictures to show that it has now been christened on the famous Goodwood race circuit.

Mind you I can\'t see it happening again but at least it lets me say like on the Goodwood thread "it\'s not an ornament" plus I have covered some 1500 miles over the last 8 weeks :3gears-rh
All the best Clive
