[s.gaspar]

wow congrats just looks like body panels mostly because the area where the fender bolts up isn't crumbled at all... doesn't really look like a crash occured but not sure... how much did you win it for though i would love to find a ms6 in this condition

Doesn't look like a bad rebuild at all from the pictures. Just panels. I have rebuilt and driven several reconstructs, and have had pleasant experiences with all of them. Was this a ride and drive or does it require tow?

If you will be doing your own painting, I feel for ya. LPM is a hard color to spray given the metallic/pearl effect it has. Don't be shocked if the bumper looks like a different color from the sheetmetal parts....they come that way from the factory as well given the color and the materials that are being painted. GL!

Looks a crazy project, you need to keep us all updated. Once you start getting the mods going you should open up a new thread.... "The Mazdaspeed resurection, built from the grave" lol

i'll definitely keep this thread updated.

congratulations!

What price you won the auction?

I also bought one, I'm repairing.

got it for $3500 shipped from CT to KY.

it runs and drives. my family only deals with rebuilt cars. we've rebuilt a ton of car. i know that the bumper wont match. my dad paints so i'm not worried about that. any kind of silver is always hard to match but i'm confident that it'll match just fine.

did you get it from a copart auction?? i been lookin at gettin a car from there... that is one hell of a price probably spend about that much to fixt it so 7k for a ms6, thats sick as hell good luck

 

[supracelica32]

yes, i got it from copart.

well guys, i just got the car today. the only done to the car is tinted tail lights and ipod integration. started the car up with a jump box and it ran like a champ but only ran for a minute since i dont have a radiator.

found the estimate from the wreck in the car, which the cost to repair said 8550 but ill be able to fix it for much less as there was 3000 in labor alone. the car was hit in the front front/passenger fender.

the paint code it 30S.
