Rebody/ Panel kit Mazda Mx 5

[fuoriserie]

I love the shape of the original Toyota 2000GT, and this company has done a mx5 roadster rebody kit, and used the Datsun 240 platform for the coupe rebody.

Beautiful work in my opinion......

Nothing wrong with those, couple of damn fine efforts I would say.

I have only looked atthe white MX5 Toyota 2000GT. Granted, from the front view it looks pretty good, but the side is MX5 with pimped wheels and the back is just hideous. If it had overbonded side panels it may have made a better job, but I would feel very awkward being seen in that as it is.

cannot see the 240z due to my I-phone, but whatever it is I hoped the time had come to stop destroying perfectly beautiful 240 / 260 z's. Obviously not!

you need to see it on your PC, but in my opinion they are both very interesting rebodies.....

The Datsun does look nice, i'll give you that! But i'd still like mine looking like a 240z. But we all know the donor could have started looking nothing like a 240z, or at least one that had been in a drive-by shootout!

That MX5 is still embarassing, even more so when on my PC not my phone.

maybe it need 17 inch wheels and a little finishing here and there on the side detailing, but it's not that bad......

If by a 'little finishing on the side detailing' you mean an extra foot welded in, then yes...

I have to say I like the 'RetroForza'
