Well i finally get to start on my mazda after sitting here for about 3 years, I took all of the fenders off and hood and bumper and bed. will start to work on the front and c-notch soon ordering parts but i started prepping the fender and painted it the color i am going to shoot it. Its the Paint shop system by duplicolor, and so far i have to say its pretty nice for being a all in one, no mixing. just pour and shoot. this is the deep blue and i added a couple coats of flake and 2 coats of clear just to start it off what you guys think so far

well i he are some progress pick i know it slow but i'm getting t here. Got the tank off, which wasnt to bad to remove except the bolt under the cab. Thank god for air tools. Got the muffler off and also the spare tire off. Also started to cut some of the excess metal that i wont need for now like center cross member, muffler brackets etc. will hopefully start to clean up the frame remove some wires etc to get it more open so can sand the fram smooth and get it ready for the notch which i still have to order. but i think i am ordering the front first. dont know yet well here is the pictures

The last picture is the cross member that i need to cut but wont cut it till the notch and the bridge is on. Also funny thing about a saw-sall, if your not watching what your cutting you might cut a brake line Doh. Oh well will just have to buy a new one and chrome it.

well just picked this up from a guy on craigslist. 5 gallan Chrome tank with 4 - 1/2 port. I got it for 20 bucks which i think was a pretty good deal
