Slow project 86 this may take awhile!

if they use any salt in your area for the winters, that looks totally normal for a mazda

ok Tore a little more apart, found some more problems. This really sucks I only get to work on it for about a total of maybe 12 hours a week. getting everything ready so I can wire my garage for 220 so I can use my welder and air compressor. Here we go:

driver floor board


passenger floor board


fenders are off.
drivers side


passenger


and of course more rust



interior gutted


bumper cutout for new grille


emissions gone




interior parts anyone?

can I remove this now that all the emission stuff on the passenger side is pulled out?

Yup

ok a little more work done from the trusty sawzall.

drivers side:



pass side:




Now to start measuring for the body drop and taking some more of the front end apart.

And yes im going to try doing 20's or bigger thats why all the cutting.

Keep it up!

Damn.Why did you cut so far towards the drivers side headlight?You didn't need to cut that far in did you?How much of a BD are you planning?Looks good so far.Keep up the good work.

Well ive been thinking of dropping it to the pinch but I'm kinda an extremist and may take it to the bottom of the doors, dont know yet.

Looks like its comin along good. That much rust is inevitable even on vehicles down here, I've been looking at a 4x4 2600 that looks almost the exact same rust-wise.
