Been awhile and never got around to posting my last update so here we go.

Got my rubber trim for my doors finally replace. good pictures on the update are on my 'dead' phone.

Image

also found a mint shift boot , no holes,stains or rips , and found a mint ash tray. Nothing on it is broken , and paint is not faded but I do question it a little because it didn't have the "push" word painted onto it.

Image

Got my final kicker panel , the one around the fuse box.

Image


and finally! how she currently sits.

Score on the shift boot, and not bad on the ashtray either!

I snag the unbroken tabs for ashtrays in junkyards, so I have a few extras I need to list for sale. I keep forgetting to add to my FS thread list...

Are you running an iPod/MP3 cord from your Cig lighter location? Good idea, honestly! I hadn't thought of that, I have been trying to find an alternative to my current setup for a while. I may go that route!

:D thanks and yea i am. Mainly because last time i hooked up the lighter it wouldn't work. So I just left it out . The wire runs into the hole though , not out of it. Down under the center and comes out beside the passenger seat so I can set my laptop down.

Also I snag anything \Mazda related that can fit in my pockets :P

Ah, well good idea either way! Mine doesn't work, and I'm too impatient to fix it honestly. :shrug: I hate everything electrical, if it's not necessary it's gone! :lol:

I need to find a new laptop... hmm.

Was on a wet road, hit the brakes and all 4 tires lost traction as I slid around 20metters into the back of a charter service truck at a stoplight.

If I could somehow find another CLOSE and CHEAP yea. Sadly I owe money now sooooo probably not.

It has the small 88hp sohc in it. :P

It is still at the lot but I don't know for how long :/ If you wanted I can call tomorrow to see If I can still pull stuff off of it. If I can and you could meet me , we could go to it and pull what ever off(they told me they need the wheels to move it around.)

what you see in the pic is the only real damage. from the passenger door back is good, everything in the bay looks to be in tact and the driver side is mint :P the car had virtually no rust. I gutted most of the interior as you can see in my [FS] thread.

If we can, you can have what ever you take free , a few bucks wouldn't hurt <3 but if you don't get it, it's gonna sit there until the tow company dose something with it.

the tow storage fee is 35$ a day , and today makes day#3, if you could pay that fee and have a way to tow it, take the hole thing. title WAS clean till now.

couple questions hows the shift boot? mine is tearing at the stitching.....also, do you have the door key and do the door locks at the handle match? and lastly are those petal clips or ms petals? i would def pay you for all of these items and meet you if at all possible
