Not your stuff Dave, the stuff at mazmart.

That is true, but the general answer given to 99% who call will be, nope all gone......

Guys, remember that I am across the continent and have no idea who this dealer is, or how any of you relate to it.

So should I even bother calling them? Or did the parts disappear long ago?

At any rate, I am editing the video disassembly video now but will have a busy next couple of days so it it may be a little while.

 

subscribed.... Nice videos

 

Your best bet would be to post a list of what you are looking for. Some of us know where to find the stuff but what we know is to broad to list.

 

Cool! I"m glad to finally see your cosmo is getting attention =)

Keep it up, looking forward to the engine tear down video

 

Agreed... I will help any way I can.

Thanks everyone. At the moment I think I have everything I need from a more local source. Everything except a passenger front fender. I'm sure that as I go along, I'll be needing more stuff...

 

Part 3 covering engine disassembly and cleaning has now been posted. When I initially started tearing down the engine and looked through the exhaust ports, I was worried about the condition of the housings. But as soon as I got into the engine, I was pleasantly surprised.

Now, what to do next? I think I'll start plugging some holes (antenna, door handles, etc.) in the body. A little bit of light body work to get those juices flowing again.

great vids, great victory on the housings

 

I like where this is going!!!

 

I might of missed it in the earlier posts, but when you purchased this did it come with a title? If not are you just going to make this a show car or a track car ?

 

ah i love the canadian accent!! maaazda. so great man. i coulda swore i read that you were stickin a more modern motor in there. but i might have read wrong. that motor looked great man! cant wait for the next update

 

Wow, this is great, keep it up!!!

 

Complete with title. The local wrecking yard will not take a car unless they receive the title.

These housings will be used with GSL-SE irons to create a hybrid old-school 6 port engine.

 

What electric impact and drill are you using, I could use those tools myself.

 

The electric impact is made by "Power Fist" and sold through Princess Auto. Your equivalent would be "Harbor Freight" and I bet they have one that looks exactly the same (they all come from the same place in China). For the $69 I paid, it has done very well. Most of the time it can get the flywheel and front hub nuts off without too much of an issue.

The little impact is a 1/4" drive 100 FT-LBs 18V cordless from Canadian Tire. They have a "powerXchange" line of tools which all use the same 18V Li-Ion or Ni-Cad batteries.

 

sweet dude cant wait to see what you do with the body ohh and hay when you get to the dash give just dashes a call iam sending mine to them soon too and rotarydude already has i believe

 

I figure I will just recover the dash myself with vinyl. Doesn't seem that hard to do. The shipping to Just Dashes and back would be very costly and I've never heard of the company before.

 

you should look int flocking the stock dash..

suede feel=cool fo real

 

well i know the mostly do stuff for classic american cars but did you check out there website

 

It's is probably easier and faster for me to just recover it in vinyl. Just need some glue and a heat gun, and then time. I'll likely be giving the same treatment to some other trim in the car when I reach that point. But that's a long way off.

 

When's the next video coming out, I enjoyed watching the others.

 

Found the perfect color today. http://is.gd/fU6n2

 

That's pretty close. What I'm going to have to do is hit the paint store and just look at a lot of samples. The metallic blue (possibly called "laser metallic blue") on the Chevy Cobalt is a good starting point, with a little darker tint.

 

Yeah, that's a pretty good color. Do you mean this one? http://is.gd/fV48M
