jrock4224- do you happen to live right near the capital across the lake. i was at my brothers house about a year ago and i noticed a black bagged mazda up the street from his house.

why yes i do. was it hiding behind a hedge. Its so low i forgot it was there. then i drove by one day and found the window broke out so i moved it . There at a 3 car garage with a motorhome....yup thats me thats fab headquarters.......although right now i am just storing shit inside to keep it clean, but i move it all out if I want to work on something....Im gonna blow it apart and re plumb it Ive gone through two sets of compressors on it and am thinking about converting a ac pump and clean up my plumbing . although its pretty clean now i just got some fittings to replace and reduce. I got another bed to so i can raise the floor in it instead of the hole i got now. But for right now I gotta get my 521 on the road so I can eliminate some of the clutter my mazda is creating. You didn't happen to stop by and ask if I was selling it did you. couple poeple asked but I am not. gonna hopefully rome that crap angain this summer. got a stand up jet ski i wanna use and the maz dog is the best thing i got to tow it with. hopefully i see you around....i keep seeing this standard cab around town runnin no bed and navi wheels. man i rolled one day with no bed and tailights like that and they fargin tried to arrest me like twice. I think the truck is from like black lake area cause i always see it by my shop cruising. even one day next door at Industrial hydralics........darn thats my spot for fittings and hose plus there next door makes it convienant. i wish i had room to bring my truck here and work on it but it will be in the way!!!!!!

yeah, im pretty sure its the one i saw then. i didnt stop by at all, i was on my way to meet up with some datsun guys to head to a show in portland. im not from that area, just visiting my brother. you may have seen my brother in the neighborhood, he is into drifting and i think he has an ae86 corolla right now. if you need any help on figuring stuff out on your 521, you should hit up ratsun.net. it is a really cool forum like this one and everyones really helpful. i actually work at a place that does powdercoating too. im just the driver for that blue kart this year so its really not up to me what gets done to it.

thats kool. i been to ratsun, a little harsh on there but once you weed through the purist know it all' s its not all bad. some people just dont like to here myour gonna gently cut up 521. should be fun though. does your brothers roommate or him have a rx-7 2nd gen blue. if so he stopeped by and asked about baggin it one day when i was out washing my bagged crew cab dually. i seem to remember the toyota sitting out front of the duplex they rent along with the rx. thats cool that you remember it from not even being a local. i get poeple stopping by all the time to ask about baggin or doing some welding on one of there cars, unfortunately i live in one of the cheapest regions in the world where apparently 30 bucks an hour is too much. take it to a shop and pay your 65 bucks an hour. thats cool that you work in p/c too.. its a cool industry but the time frames are ridiculous. I assume you cust. base is like mine they think its a drive up window. drop off at one door pull forward to next door to recieve done product 5 mins later. still its wave of th future and compared to painting is really inexpensive . being that i have a automotive paint backgoround i know the cost has gone crazy for materials.. i remeber people would shit when you told them to paint a car mat. would run you about 1500.00 to do it right and figure another 500. in misc crap to finish all aspects of a correct paint job.

yeah there are a few purists on there but most of them are pretty cool about it. i am starting on bagging an NL320 so i have gotten a little bit of crap for it. im not sure what his roomate drove. my brother has had quite a few toyotas, 240s, and rx7s so its kinda hard to keep track but i dont think he had a blue one. i actually dont work in the p/c industry, we powdercoat some of our products here. i work at a high end titanium wheelchair company.
