Project "driveway built" Mazda gets a heart transplant

Got the motor running over the weekend, caught the first start up on video

i like that it sounds and looks mean with that motor n headlights keep up the good work

Made a template for an aluminum radiator shroud that i had cut out and bent, was gunna go with stainless but theres so much aluminum on the motor I figured it would look better. So here it is a one off rad fan shroud lol



Template I took to the machine shop to get cut out of aluminum



Test fitted it and I drilled out a couple mounting holes, found some chrome snap cap screw covers at a chopper store locally that I was stoked about.



Installed, I think it works with the truck what ya think?

Oh yeah, looking good!

Looks awesome man, that's a nice touch!

love your build....thats a bad ass mini w/ a sbc.....i wanted to go that way with my build but I ended up getting a 94 ranger with 60k miles that was running for free so I figure save me a little bit of money and drop the engine and trans from ranger in my truck.....i had a 350 but didn't have all the other accessories to hook it up

Taillight fillers came in the mail today that i bought from this site from 2006ms6 thanks man.

'59 caddi taillights is the plan
