MX-3 Project Car
5 Attachment(s)
So I was looking for a car to work on and learn mechanic from. I was actually looking for a honda at first but I came across this MX-3 and I couldn't resist. I haven't really seen one in my area, only in PR. So I just had to get it. There are no mechanical problems with the car so far except for a very small oil leak coming from the back somewhere that needs to be addressed. Right now I'm sanding it down since I have only had time at night to work on it and finding an oil leak that is very tiny is very difficult at night. Anyways here are my goals, I plan on doing everything myself. I live in Central Jersey so I am willing to go to meets or meet anyone who just wants to have fun completing this car with me.
CURRENT GOALS: Paint car on a budget: IN PROGRESS Plastic dip car: PENDING Repair oil leak: IN PROGRESS Exhaust repair: IN PROGRESS Springs, Bars: PENDING Halo Headlights: PENDING Redo interior: PENDING Add spoiler: PENDING END GOAL: BPT/BPD Swap: PENDING |

Sanding it down

What color you going? I know that graphite color isn't stock. Also, how much did you pick it up for?
|
I am thinking of painting it either white or grey simply because I want to plastic dip (yellow) it after and I feel like those are good base colors for the colors that I want to use in the future.

Good luck to you. I'm doing a similar thing but out of necessity. My MX-3 GS has been quite the teacher for learning mechanics. I have literally been working on it for a year, but there were several months I had to take off because of other commitments.
Get it running and it's a great fun car. If you hit some bumps let me know, more than likely I have been through it! |
