Really nice work you've done. I always liked your styling (just not a chrome wheel fan but to each is own). Can't wait to see the new paint. Are you painting yourself or are you having it done? I would like to try and paint mine this year (before it's sold).

sigh... a turbo was in my future plans but now I'm just focused on getting mine back on the road. (The disty you sold me should do the trick!). I have to go to the PO today to pick it up since I missed the delivery (stupid work).

ok so i couldn't get the mazda paint because they cant do it in dupont paint and have to do it in tint master which is atleast 600$ for the paint only...

so i choses just a plain frost white color...

but next year i will get it repainted the color I want and will pay anything for it...

just cause right now im tight on budjet i spent like 5000$ on the car again this year...

engine and all that...

anyways its gonna stay like that till next summer...

im not too too crazy about the paint color but w.e.

what do you think?

engine bay is almost done just have to do touch ups on bolts and all that then put everything back in and drop in the engine!
