Me likee very much.
Don't go to all the trouble painting it and then sell it a few months later (like that chocolate NA recently).

Spent most of last night sanding back the left rear guard with 3000 grit wet and dry to lower the amount of orange peel in the clear coat. Meant to start with 2000 and work my way to 3000 but no one had it in stock. Lots of extra work but it’s come up looking amazing

Doors are on. Not much left to paint now. Now to order a tonne of genuine Mazda parts :shock:

NB dash going back in I presume? Any plans for seats? You sold the Sparcos if I recall correctly.

Yeah NB dash going back in. Unsure about seats but probably will be going to get another set of Sprints for the time being until I can get something that is a similar size but fibreglass back.
