Here is a video from when I first got my RE-5.  You can hear the purr of the rotary engine.

The frame had collected a lot of rust over the past 34 years, so I decided to strip it all down and give it some fresh paint.  I did two coats of Rust-Oleum metal primer, three coats of black, and two coats of clear.

I will have a lot more to come with this project.  It will be getting a new wiring harness, custom exhaust, and misc accessories.
