Re: Has anyone restored their mx
i had my old white one right down to a bare body gas line's and the tank, everything was taken off, cleaned painted and put back. auto to manual swap, klze swap, interior cleaned and put back. this was done a couple time's. my new white one is gutted and needing to be sanded so i can repaint it, then i have to gut my old white one to transplant everything over....before kelowna.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: Has anyone restored their mx
It has been my greatest wish to disassemble the Purple Beast and rebuild her from the ground up with love and attention to every detail. It will happen...as soon as I have a garage of my own.
94' RS/GS/MS/CF Monster Turbo...coming soon.
93' GS SE, the Black Beast, the former love of my life...soon to be gutted and crushed.
94' GS, black on black, now in several small pieces...and one large crushed piece.
2007 Mazda3 GT Sport --- super fun
2004 Honda RC51 --- Lost forever to some theavin' bastard

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

*spoiler*
Pics+worklog to come soon. I am indeed starting a year+ long project. First parts came off last night, only to get swapped into my other mx3 because it's having issues, which I am trying to deal with.
But yes. A full rebuild, including stitch welding, frame bracing, full suspension powder coating and an engine rebuild is officially underway.

Re: Has anyone restored their mx
x2. I totally know that in my future I am going to tear down the whole car... eliminate all rust, re-paint the engine bay and around the inside stuff... and then restore the whole car!wytbishop wrote:It has been my greatest wish to disassemble the Purple Beast and rebuild her from the ground up with love and attention to every detail.
