I have a few rx-3 parts on ebay right now.
They aren't in perfect condition, but may be something you could work with.

Well first rail is out. The new rail is a 2x3 11 gauge from Autoweld with a 3" rise. Will be cutting the floor and then reinforcing with angles at the spot welds. Also plan on making out riggers to the pinch weld.

Yea i took quite a few of them. It was pretty straight forward once i dissembled everything and figured out what i needed. Im sure you wont have any issues with the swap.

I forgot how much i disliked thar butterscotch color. I had a '76 just like it. My wife drove it (we had enough money for a second car) and i had my '72 4 door blue RX-3. I got a '77 RX3SP the next year and in '78 got a new RX7. As i recall the 76 was a real lemon. Had the Free Maintenance program on that one and it cost Mazda about $2000 .
Something needed changing every 2 or 3 months.

Been a while since I updated frame rails are partially welded in. I have started my suspension mounting with a big change to a triangulated 4 link from welder series. After the flex-form spring debacle. I worked out a way to get the triangulated bars in a good spot without rear seat tear up. Also working on getting a heavier plate in stalled for upper control arm mounting tying into the firewall and front clip. I think rim and tire size will be the 15x8/15x9's with 225 and 245 RS4's. Hopefully with the low offset they will fit over the FD brakes.
