$300 from a dude in seaside, OR that my brother sold his 7series BMW to. when i got it the windsheild was spidered, the clutch master/slave cylinder and clutch were shot, it had some nasty insulated rubber glued to the floor that was trapping water and was quite a mess to clean out. along with a torn up bench seat, no tach, and the driver door didnt wanna open all the time.
started by taking the bed off then taking all of body panels off and glass out and the dash out. i was going to paint the truck the color of the hood but the black came out much better.

its got 2" blocks in the back, and the Tbars are cranked down 4 about a 1" drop in the front as of now. i think thats as low is im going to go tho. drivetrain is my main concern. doing a carb to EFI swap soon, after the rebuilt 2.2 goes in im going to add a turbo from a 626 which is what EFI system im going to b using too. gunna run that 4 a lil bit n maybe sell it, n swap in a Kia FE3 with a turbo eventually.

I am a big fan of b series mazdas I have had 5 of them 2 juiced one bagged and 2 lowered. I miss them all my first mini was a b2000 that was dragging xmember before people were tucking 16s. But that was way back when now im on my 3rd nissan...that factory silver blue is a badass color when the truck is laid out on chrome wheels...
