I thought it was a little too old for a GTX, but I admit I don't know alot about Mazda's.

[green91]

[K24cb7coupe]

[green91]

I think old school projects must be the new fad.

is it not a GLC?

[Big_Dave]

i have a couple of datsuns. really want a 510 wagon, but these will do for now!



74 pick-up. i have a wiring issue i can't figure out. plan on slamming it very low with a stock type look to the body.

77 b210 dogleg 5-speed. completly stock daily driver
Man that b210 is the shiz. That's a B210 gt. I've always wanted one of those! Cool car! So you know john from O'riely's? You should have went to the Dam Old Skool meet. You better come to the next one! lol
PS that bullet side P/U is killer too.

[Big_Dave]

baby J, your gonna have to come off the hip w/what kind of car that is! I thought it was a late GLC and then maybe an early 323, but I guess not!

[fire7882]

My 69 Firebird and Beetle Dunebuggy. I've hade the dunebuggy for years and done nothing to it. Maybe I'll fix it up one day. Also have a 73 Impala, 56 Ford Fairlane and 1980 porsche 924 but no pictures. My dad has a 36 Chevy Master Coupe, 1966 Cadillac Eldorado, and 1956 chevy truck. All but the Fairlane and Beetle are in good shape.

That's a nice truck, what is it like a 1947 cab and a 30's grille? This truck was Old skooll when my Dad was a kid! lol Are you from G'ville the big COG?

[Big_Dave]

Dang, that Firebird don't look like no project! lol
Dunebuggys are cool!

[fire7882]

Found a Pic of the 73 Impala. Only 52,000 miles. This was taken forever ago. Its all cleaned up now.

[Big_Dave]

This thread got some cool stuff posted in it. Keep it up. I've got a couple of cars I gotta get posted our datsun 710 and our 74 corona mkII

[fire7882]

It was my first car project. Its a base model that had a 4.1 overhead cam engine. I put a built pontiac 350 and muncie 4 speed in it around 1998 when I was 16. It will have a LS1 or newer engine someday.

[BABY J]

It's a GLC. But it has some tricks up its sleeve.

[twincannon26]

seems like all i do is old school cars.


my 86 mr2:








77 280z - chevy powered






newest edition to my family, and probably the rarest car i'll ever own. 84 aw10 mr2, RHD, vin# aw100000321. it should be at the varsity next meet.






these are my current toys, previous rides include 5 FC rx-7s, an FB rx-7, z32 300zxTT, and my favorite by far, an E30 318i. some people like thier current model fancy optioned cars, but i wouldnt have it any other way.

[Tech5]

nice

so you've got some experience going on by now. Nice toys! good luck!

[Big_Dave]

Twincannon, What about the v8 Z? thats got to be fun and a handful. Eh?

[twincannon26]

haha yea its fun, but it has a severe traction problem, you lose the rear end way too easy. it has the factory 4.10 or so open diff. th350 spins the 235's all the way through first, halfway through second, and into third. need to get the lsd from a z31 turbo, just havent found a good price on one yet.

but if you get bored and wanna build something really fast for pretty cheap, i highly reccomend a v8 z or rx-7.

[Big_Dave]

Heck yeah! you def need an LSD. I've heard of old dirt trackers filling the diff with lead filings and lead pieces. It works like a cross between a welded diff and an LSD.

[JITB]

It's a GLC. But it has some tricks up its sleeve.

you gonna keep that motor in it?

Is that a 1.3 or 1.5? i think you should drop a b6t in it, or even a BP..

[BABY J]

It's in line behind 2 other projects - my datto 510, and a 94 SeR I grabbed from Alabama (I may sell this) - but I will have it driving and registered w/in the next 2 months until I figure out the end game for it. I'm Mazda stupid, so I need to research the engines/options before I start hacking it up.

Well, it's a '48 cab/bed on a 54 frame with a Ford model A grille -- it's actually 2 grille top halves welded together.

Is this GLC rear wheel drive or is it some kind of 4 wheel drive?

Rat rod ingenuity! awsome truck

[buddha@TeamFX]

Here are my old school projects.
68 Camaro RS this is what it used to look like but were tore it down again.
70 Chevelle My grandfather bought this car new in 70 and gave it to me a few years ago
The Two blazers are my buddy's dads...I just finished the motor in the one on the left a couple months ago
64 GTO this is another we have took frame off...frame is powdercoated and body was rotisseried and done in a bright red. we are assembling it with all new everything and some hotchkis suspension. Its a big block w/ a 4 spd.

thats why you should sell it to me! with the GlC you have alot of options B6t turbo 1.6 from the gtx/capri xr2/323 gt. Even the b6 sohc from the 323. The big swap would include a Bp 1.8 in it, but you would hhave to do some hacking. The best swap money wise would be the b6t.

[Ed]

this thread is full of win...

i might have a project coming up soon

[F8d2Blk]

Here's my 510 with an JDM SR20de non turbo RWD and my current car, civic hatch. The current state right now is bodywork.

my next project

[87 Turbo II]

I'm going to try and get the L.E wheels from the 83 limited. they're 14 by 6 instead of 13 by 5. I'm maxing these out on 185s, the others will fit 215s safely and that's enough grip for a 2300 pound car, considering my old TII was 700 pounds heavier and gripped like crazy on 225s.

ok ,I found a set and I've ordered them. It's going to look so good when I repaint them and get them on the car.


over these stockers that are one inch smaller in both diameter and width (best picture I have of the head on view of the wheels):
