Remember the Titans?

Not quite but this is the 73 that was mentioned in my cousin's write-up by mazdaUSA. I had for quite sometime, got it running, he brought it home and then I bought it. Came with a polished autobahns and GSL-SE SP engine but I took it apart. not sure if it will be a SP or a BP. Still need to re-do the ugly *** white interior.

That thing is straight. Did it need much body work?

little to no bondo. this thing was straight with few small dings. My bro picked it up from JesusCookies several years ago. From the body shop, it came to me but took me awhile to get it back together since I was only getting one part at a time. The bitch part of auto restoration.

I am very tempted to send mine to the body shop now. I am starting to get the rust at the bottom of the rear window trim. I could live with the dings, but I don't want my car to rot away. If I go broke making my rx3 shiny again it will be your fault. j/k

With my former Chiquito Banana RX-3, I didnt have any time to work on it due to multiple projects. Then one day, I took it apart but took me several months to re-assemble it. Almost made it to JCCS but alternator took a crap. Right after SS9, I took it apart again as it has to go back to the shop. Im worried that them ******* may take it for a cruise and street racing.
