mainer311 Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 (edited) You covered over the firewall pockets, BUT, that's where I put all my tools when I'm working on it. 😆 Also, what's going on with the steering? I see holes for the grommet, but not for the column? Edited December 3, 2021 by mainer311 1 Quote Link to comment

mainer311 Posted December 12, 2021 Report Share Posted December 12, 2021 My first car was a 1993 2wd D21 that was Aztec Red. I’m interested to see how it looks when it’s all put back together. 2 Quote Link to comment

Stoffregen Motorsports Posted December 13, 2021 Report Share Posted December 13, 2021 I have a belief that red does not belong on trucks, unless it's a fire truck. You do whatever makes you feel good. That is a nice red though. 2 Quote Link to comment

Stoffregen Motorsports Posted December 14, 2021 Report Share Posted December 14, 2021 I firmly believe that the color should represent the character of the vehicle, and since my bread and butter is off-road, red doesn't fit. That's not to say that I wouldn't love a slammed '70 Chevy truck, and I could totally see that in red. I sold my '57 Chevy truck last year, and that was going to be built as a hotrod, and possibly even red. Disregard what I said about red on trucks. It just doesn't belong on dirt under the nails working trucks. 1 Quote Link to comment
mainer311 Posted December 14, 2021 Report Share Posted December 14, 2021 When I saw the red, I immediately thought of a Mazda Repu 3 Quote Link to comment

I would not mind a 3100 also but want cool factor but with the intent of loading shit in the bed as well. 1 Quote Link to comment
