So here is my project, a 1994 Mx-3 GS that I bought in 2000 @ 110 000km (now @ 160 000km).

Says you're 16. So you bought this car when you were 11?

Must have bought it when he was 11 if he has done all that work and is only 16. LOL
Great job though, looks great and I love the alternate 5 spoke Mazda wheels. You hardly ever see them.

I think clean may be an understatement. WOW, you make even clean cars look dirty. Nice job

In fact, my mother bought it in 2000, when I was 11. Since she bought it, I just did the maintenance and started the project (little modifications ..) thus starting getting the money to buy it in the future, thing that I did last fall.

Thanks for the comments !
