Has anyone done a full on restoration of an FC yet?
 

I'm very curious to see if you guys are interested in doing that to your cars, or if you already have. When I say full restoration I mean FULL (literally looks brand new...including underneath).

Yes john is doing the full restoration....with a little extra added to it..... GOD DAMN thats what i say when i get in my car and touch something....it breaks.....so i kind of feel im doing an ongoing restoration every time i get in my car

i'm tryin' to but im a poor ass!!!!im gonna be done in about 5 years!

I just finished in my restoration project of my car..
So far non-performance parts that I have restored are:

New Red Stock Paint Job
New Door Locks Inclduing Trunk
New Door Jams
New Stock Signal Lense
Everything in working order including the wiper logicon
Rebuilt Engine
Bushings.. Including a pair of Racing Beat bushings
Upgraded Brake Rotors
Rebuilt Calipers and Lines
New Clutch line SS
Cleander the underbody

Thinking of strenthening the Frame in the future with spot welds or additional reenforcement bars other then strut bars...

I have done alot of aftermarket parts. The list is too long

God, I'm NOT looking forward to paying $$$$ for the cracked outer windshield plastic trim, cracked inner convertible windshield pillar cover, cracked convertible interior side pillar, seat covers, and possibly the faded carpet, faded convertible spare tire cover, and faded convertible wind blocker (just to get the mazda logo mostly).

I know the crusty side window trim is cheap from mazdatrix, but that's about it.

Also, the cracked plastic nose underbody (ie cracked surround around the air pump intake in the passengers side front nose).

I think that's all the "you can't fix" plastic stuff that cracks.

my car doesn't require one :D

I think dale clark is pretty much doing one now too.

its all a matter of how deep your pockets are

1FastT2 is close to it I would say. He just finished his interior swap not too long ago and looks great

mm, buy the time im done with my car it should be all new parts, atleast to me, at the monment the only things i can think that i ahvent taken out is the glass, the gas tank, and the fuse block,
now if i only had parts to put back on..
