Mazda RX3 | Barn Find? Barn find rad BMXs!
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
On this episode we go for a long drive to an undisclosed location in Mexico to look at some cars. Unbeknown to Grant, Rob has cooked up something pretty special!
Oh, and we also found some cool BMX's which are right up Rob's alley. Needless to say we sealed the deal and took all of this cool stuff home!

Those are Savanna tailights they are post1975-6. those badges came with the savanna model. That is not a RX3 steering wheel. and even though it has a tacho dash it is alot different to a RX3 dash. Also RX3 Door cards covered the whole inside of the door. there was not that gap of body colour between the top of the door card and the start of the window glass. Nice Find Lads. Cheers.

Great knowledge. Agree it is most definitely an 808 made to look like an Rx3.

@@bettyandleon, I used to up until about 15 years ago. I then built a RX7 and raced IPRA for a while. I had to sell the IPRA RX7 because I was diagnosed with Fibro/CFS about 6 years ago and that has stopped me racing. When I can, I do some work on the RX3 and use it as a tool to try to get better and recover. I hope to be out next year and do some private practice days or sprints in something. It is really had to sit and watch. That is why I love watching Your videos. So thanks for the content. Cheers.

@@MJTAUTOMOTIVE Sorry to hear that you were diagnosed with fibro/CFS. That sure would make life difficult but at least you haven't lost the urge! Thanks for the kind words. We make the videos with the time that we have which isn't alot. They could be better but like most things it's a practiced art which hopefully we are getting better at. p.s If you ever need a driver .... :)
In Europe an 808 is called a 818 due to Peugeot owning the license to name cars with a 0 in the middle (x0x)

Sorry mate, cant reveal our sources but it was inline with what the going rate was at the time. Not COVID tax prices but certainly not 2001-2005 prices either.

You're right an auto is far nicer on the street but there is something about swapping cogs that makes it fun.
Any updates on this car?
