Thanks ^ It has been sitting for 3 long years , But Finally is out and is getting work done finally at moments I tell my wife she dont want me to spend more money on junk she says lol. I said ok Let me buy a Supra she said ok what year i said islike a 1996 she said ok then she checked priced lol you dont want to know then I told her let me get the new scion FRS , she said just shut up and dont spend a ton on the car lol she knows is my Toy..

 

Yeah I got the same problem with other half as well, wasting money on that and waisting money on this!..lol but as soon as your done your project she's the first one taking a test drive with you!..lol

 

lol very true but when i finished my rx8 she didnt want to get in it because she said she afraid it leaves us stranded,, but now when we go out she wants to go in my car lol

 

Hahaha yeah I get the same response as well!.. Well don't give up on the old girl, can't wait to see it completed..

 

Thanks n i haven't so far did more work on it more grinding under coating off lol

 

wow well my project is never going to start ,, im getting stressed out about it too, My wife wants me to sell it and get a 3rd gen . I like the idea but this is me , I got a rx8 to have a daily rotary and now she likes it and wants me to get the 3rd gen and hook it up I tell her is about the same money or more , she said is better than this junk I have lol what to do what to do.,

 

It shouldn't be about the money mate. It should be about satisfaction and fulfilment. Does working on your 3 bring you enjoyment? Is it pleasure? Do you feel accomplishment when some part of your project is finished and you move on to the next steps?

These feelings and experiences cannot be replaced with a Supra or 3rd gen.

 

man your so right about that but I haven't worked on it but take it apart and it feels good , I was supposed to take to shop to sand blass bottom of car and engine bay and I cant this month again family issues,, I may have to take a trip to Puerto Rico my gramma not going to last long so this is going to cost me a goo chunk since im talking my family ,, cant complain but it seems something always comes up.. If I could only start the sheet metal work I think Ill be more happy than just keep striping bad parts and not seen result :-(

 

 

here is how the car sit , was going to be dropped of at the shop to get under car and engine bay sand blasted but this going to have to wait a bit longer not sure how long but it was going next Thursday ,, will see ;-(

Tell me about it it's crazy , but finally doing something about it . Lol

 

Well yesterday I decided to scrape a small area of under coating and got hooked , did almost the complete wheel wel area , today I should be able to finish under coating makes any car look like **** and old .


The undercoating looks crappy , can't wait to seal it and prime it . I have to see if I seam seal it first or apoxy it first . Got some investigation to do .

 

Did more cutting Nd more scrapping .. Tomorrow I will start to fabricate a piece so I can start making some pieces , I can't really start making pieces since they all one big puzzle lol


I think tomorrow I will start making this piece before I loose where panels go lol

 

I was about to ask when you were gonna stop cutting and start fabbing...lol. You could lose your way quickly when cutting out so much metal. Its looking good.
