Sounds like it's a Mazdondabaru RX789112000sxs....

Johnny Cash; "One Piece at a Time":


Well, I left Kentucky back in '49
An' went to Detroit workin' on a 'sembly line
The first year they had me puttin' wheels on cadillacs

Every day I'd watch them beauties roll by
And sometimes I'd hang my head and cry
'Cause I always wanted me one that was long and black.

One day I devised myself a plan
That should be the envy of most any man
I'd sneak it out of there in a lunchbox in my hand
Now gettin' caught meant gettin' fired
But I figured I'd have it all by the time I retired
I'd have me a car worth at least a hundred grand.

[CHORUS]
I'd get it one piece at a time
And it wouldn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around.

So the very next day when I punched in
With my big lunchbox and with help from my friends
I left that day with a lunch box full of gears
Now, I never considered myself a thief
GM wouldn't miss just one little piece
Especially if I strung it out over several years.

The first day I got me a fuel pump
And the next day I got me an engine and a trunk
Then I got me a transmission and all of the chrome
The little things I could get in my big lunchbox
Like nuts, an' bolts, and all four shocks
But the big stuff we snuck out in my buddy's mobile home.

Now, up to now my plan went all right
'Til we tried to put it all together one night
And that's when we noticed that something was definitely wrong.

The transmission was a '53
And the motor turned out to be a '73
And when we tried to put in the bolts all the holes were gone.

So we drilled it out so that it would fit
And with a little bit of help with an A-daptor kit
We had that engine runnin' just like a song
Now the headlights' was another sight
We had two on the left and one on the right
But when we pulled out the switch all three of 'em come on.

The back end looked kinda funny too
But we put it together and when we got thru
Well, that's when we noticed that we only had one tail-fin
About that time my wife walked out
And I could see in her eyes that she had her doubts
But she opened the door and said "Honey, take me for a spin."

So we drove up town just to get the tags
And I headed her right on down main drag
I could hear everybody laughin' for blocks around
But up there at the court house they didn't laugh
'Cause to type it up it took the whole staff
And when they got through the title weighed sixty pounds.

[CHORUS]
I got it one piece at a time
And it didn't cost me a dime
You'll know it's me when I come through your town
I'm gonna ride around in style
I'm gonna drive everybody wild
'Cause I'll have the only one there is around.

[Spoken] Ugh! Yow, RED RYDER
This is the COTTON MOUTH
In the PSYCHO-BILLY CADILLAC Come on

Huh, This is the COTTON MOUTH
And negatory on the cost of this mow-chine there RED RYDER
You might say I went right up to the factory
And picked it up, it's cheaper that way
Ugh!, what model is it?

mjm4jc 07-19-09 10:09 PM

Wow, lots of mods and parts from other cars. But where's the pics?

snwyvern 07-19-09 10:22 PM

Hey-- We really do need a wiki. Some of these swaps are bolt-off, bolt-on, whereas others (taurus fan, points-swap-out and the rear end conversion for example) are not quite so... easy to do.

What are the chances of a hosted wiki?

mikeric 07-21-09 09:44 AM

I am waiting for the Renesis swap. Who has done that? Thinking about it, but I want to hear horror stories first.

OtakuRX 07-21-09 10:16 AM

I can host up a wiki if needed, I'll grab the mediaWiki code and put it on my servers. Be a nice way to manage all the information here.

snwyvern 07-21-09 06:02 PM

I just think it would be a nice way to properly host mods, how-tos and pics for those mods-- Linking to threads is a crappy way to get your FAQ fix on.

AcidAngel7477 07-21-09 09:51 PM

its been done..dont know by who..but i came across these picture's and saved them..

I'm looking to put in a second gen fuse box in my FB, but I cant find the right size quick disconnects. anyone know what size I need and where do I find them? BTW the whole reason I wanted to do the FC fuse box was because I couldn't find the right size quick disconnects that look to be the same size. I can get fusible link wires all day long for about 5 bucks a foot.

I have a S4 Alt, 2g leading coil, miata short shift, apex'i muffler from my old lancer. I still need to install the FC oil cooler, and fuse box.`

mjm4jc 07-22-09 08:57 PM

Convert your fusible links into a beautiful fuse box. Simply take out the wires/links and install Bussmann fusible link fuses (FLF-20--for the 20 amp). They are nice looking, clear, (so you can see inside), and best of all----they plug right in! No mods, no fuss. Your fusible link block will look awesome with all the different color fuses, like a real fuse panel. Someone on the forum gave me this idea.

That didn't work for me. I've tried it. I wiggled it I got no power. I've already bought the part and made the bracket to mount it. I just need the connectors
