Im 18, and just bought a 1994 mazda b3000 with over 250 XXX on the body but 150 000 on newer ford windstar motor. Paid dirt cheap for it. Still needs a fair bit of work but is comming together great. Before that i owned a 1990 Nissan 240sx that was my first car. Great vehicle thats for sure. But frame rails were rotted out as most 19 year old 240’s in canada. But im looking forward in many upgrades for the truck, wanting to lower it and eventually get another engine. Heres Pictures of it right now and the progress i have made with it so far, Let me know what you think and perhaps advice. Will keep posted ![http://i43.tinypic.com/t0tcg1.jpg](http://i43.tinypic.com/t0tcg1.jpg) The day i got it ![http://i41.tinypic.com/2na1dfk.jpg](http://i41.tinypic.com/2na1dfk.jpg) ![http://i42.tinypic.com/5m0950.jpg](http://i42.tinypic.com/5m0950.jpg) ![http://i40.tinypic.com/2uz6jja.jpg](http://i40.tinypic.com/2uz6jja.jpg) ![http://i40.tinypic.com/v7y1xc.jpg](http://i40.tinypic.com/v7y1xc.jpg) ![http://i44.tinypic.com/novmki.jpg](http://i44.tinypic.com/novmki.jpg) Getting ready for paint ![http://i40.tinypic.com/2f07xqa.jpg](http://i40.tinypic.com/2f07xqa.jpg) ![http://i43.tinypic.com/1z4e64w.jpg](http://i43.tinypic.com/1z4e64w.jpg) ![http://i39.tinypic.com/i6yq94.jpg](http://i39.tinypic.com/i6yq94.jpg) Seeing how it looks ![http://i43.tinypic.com/2889j7o.jpg](http://i43.tinypic.com/2889j7o.jpg) ![http://i42.tinypic.com/23iup08.jpg](http://i42.tinypic.com/23iup08.jpg) ![http://i39.tinypic.com/aaj39w.jpg](http://i39.tinypic.com/aaj39w.jpg) ![http://i43.tinypic.com/fnz89.jpg](http://i43.tinypic.com/fnz89.jpg) ![http://i42.tinypic.com/hu50xw.jpg](http://i42.tinypic.com/hu50xw.jpg) ![http://i40.tinypic.com/bf3qlf.jpg](http://i40.tinypic.com/bf3qlf.jpg) ---

Looks like it’ll turn out good! 351W when the body is done, right??? Forget SR dude. that thing is begging for a 351 or at least a mild stroker built 302 motor. ---

Dump it, tunel cover, nice paint job (preferably paint it some type of nice white), black leather interior, rims and keep it a Mazda drop an RX7 motor in it and your done. …If you want to get crazy chop the top, put lambo doors on it and air ride suspension. ---
