Where did your 5 end up Sean? It was certainly a great little weapon, even in low boost guise!
The new toy looks good... are they 4x100 wheels? I thought the RX/929's had different stud patterns. What developments have occurred since you bought it?
Yay a comment!
The MX5 went to a member here who has improved it further with air con and some other comfort mods
The 929 is soooo much work, think patchy time by 15 or so. The wheels on it are 114.3 now, they were re-welded and redrilled from a different pattern, and spacers made up to get the offset right.
It looks a tad more grey now thanks to most of it being in primer.
So far the engine has been rebuilt to stock spec - definately not a rocket, but the big manual choke switch gives a real sense of ceremony.
A whole lot of rust has been cut out and replaced with new steel, a HUGE job, much bigger than I was planning on, but it's coming along slowly, the body itself is fairly good, but the sills were rubbish, as are both the doors, we patched the doors with some plates but I'm keeping my eye out for 2 new doors, I dont feel right about welding so much into doorskins!
Will get some more pics of her up soon.
