They tackle challenges head-on, sourcing rare interior parts and replacing worn-out components with care and precision. Through laughter and banter, they forge ahead, determined to bring this iconic car back to its former splendor, one repair at a time.

Amidst the trials and tribulations of restoring a classic car, the team at Tj Hunt finds joy in the small victories - from fixing cracked door cards to upgrading lights for a brighter, more modern look. With each task completed, the RX7 begins to regain its former charm, a testament to the team's dedication and craftsmanship. As they share laughs and stories throughout the restoration process, one thing becomes clear - this RX7 is more than just a car; it's a symbol of passion, perseverance, and the unbreakable bond between a team united in their love for all things automotive.
