Chino looking good, and JRRotors dejame saber que tienes disponible...let me know what you got available as for parts.

 

Thanks bro did more work over weekend not as much as I wanted had a few parties to go to . And other cars to work on. But excited how is coming out .

 

Been working on my RX3 and man I feel like I keep cutting and grinding and I feel like soon all I'll have left are my glass on the car .. Jajaja lmao , jk well kinda , I got stuck in one area and aaron cake busted another great video and unstuck me, lol .
Well I'm stuck again in the door pilar main upper area . I'm not sure how I can weld in that area. Here are some update pictures . I really can weld yet until I get main area done :-(

 

This is The área im stuck in if you look at top it rusted out and that connect to door /window pillar and I'm sure it needs to be structure corrctly and welded.

 

And as you can tell here I need to connect new sheet metal to top , but how I'm a rookie any help with be greatly appreciated ,


And where it rotted,how can I weld it ?

 

I took out the interior kick panel lots of surface rust and made a new one with my new air flange punch ,, awesome tool it came out good.






And as you can tell I got almost all panels ( puzzle pieces) done just waiting on inner pillar area , then a welding I should go.

 

Decided to cut out a bit more bought me a new 30" metal brake wow I been needed this brake , and a new Welding helmet and lots of little things I needed to keep going .
The cut area

The new area

 

My new helmet , my process is slow but I should be picking up faster now that I have bought a lot more stuff I needed ,

 

that is a nice car!

 

ugh man that is so much work! i couldn't never do anything like this lol.. seems so much easier to just spend a couple grand on a nice body

 

I've seen about 5 bodies and of course over 3-4 gran $$$$ and when I check check for trouble area yep no good , or no floor or good in one area and bad in another area or no tittle or bill of sale etc.. Trust me I've tried . And this fabrication job is expensive ****. So if I'm buying a car for 3 gran if I was lucky and I still had to do work on it they may have charged me about another 3-4 gran and they probably won't be as detail to prevent rust like I am. I've gone over Aaron cakes videos may times lol ..
I've spend many many$$$ to get what I need to do this and I'm finally got what I need to do this . Now remember I bought an rx8 rebuild it and pimped it , and no it was not finance so a big chunk hurt my project but no regret . I'm in full throttle on this is awesome to have the equipment this is by far the worst area .

 

A area where I'm working on tomorrow , was waiting on por15 to dry so can't weld today , tomo weld primer and off to put this little puzzles together . You can see the por15 nice black shinny .
Sand blast , ospho clean clean then por15 dry time then weld primer , tomorrow more updates .



You can see por15 in pilar area , :-)
