Need some assistance with some aluminum welding so I figured I would sign up and share my build. Hopefully someone can assist with some TIG work I need done. Just don't have the skill or the tools to do it my self.
The Volvo:
1981 Volvo 245 DL Stock with the exception of the drop, the wheels, and the stereo ('81 paper speakers weren't cutting it). I daily drive this thing and love it. Gets me where I need to go and has TONS of room for parts, home depot runs, ect.
The Mazda:
1987 Mazda Rx-7 SE with a 2002-2004 5.3l LM7 and a F-Body T56, 76mm On3 Performance turbo, 44mm WG, stitch welded chassis, gutted interior, ect. This is the current project, have been working on and off over the past 2 years to ruin a perfectly good car. Will eventually get suspension under it, a cage, megasquirt, and paint. Plan on drifting, hooning, roll racing, drag, ect. with the car. Shooting for 600whp+, don't see any trouble getting there with the current setup. Car should weigh 2500lbs. so I am sure 400whp would be a handful to drive.
Moved down here from Northern VA 4 years ago and have not been too involved with the car scene in Charleston. I sold my 350whp VW and bought a bike, then sold that to build the Mazda. I try and attend Cars and Coffee in Mr. P when I can, usually with the wagon unless I have the lil guy with me. Look forward to getting the Mazda up and running and attending some local events.
