Thanks man. I'm self taught. Anyone can do it if they take their time. Its just metal so if u f**k it up just cut it out and do it again...

U know I'm not a fan of bobbed beds. If I did anything I would extend the frame and put a long bed on. Thanks for the input though. Nice to see someone else is thinking out of the box lol

i thought that as well, but then thought with the front end all put on, it might look odd since the nose is actually kinda long and the bed is already short.

:shock: really!? i dunno if a longer bed would look right.
i think the bed on it looks to be just about the perfect length... maybe 2 or 3 inches too long, but thats just my opinion.

I agree, the bed on it is just about the right length. However, I think you should lengthen the engine bay and throw in a big block :lol:

There is a guy that imported a rhd four door mazda cab and put a long bed on it and it looks badass. The bed is staying lol.

U guys r missing the whole point of this build...

Mazda made a rotary engine pickup in 74-77. I am trying to recreate what mazda should have done in the nineties but didn't. Well obviously they wouldn't have bagged it and s**t but u get the idea lol

i actually saw a RE-PU the other day... rusty as hell, but still running. i should have asked if he was interested in selling it.

thanks a lot man. i really appreciate it. i am doing this build to show people that u dont have to pay a shop to do the work on ur vehicles and that it can be a whole lot of fun. it just takes a lot of thought and a bit of patience(which i lack most of the time).

i am trying to do things different than most minitruckers, and just wait for when the truck is done and featured in a mag. there will definately be a CC shoutout lol..

stay tuned for more, i have some pretty big updates headed ur way..

s**t is coming together finally I see man... WOO!!!!
slowly but surely. very happy to see ur car is running proper. if u ever want to sell it, hit me up..

i actually saw a RE-PU the other day... rusty as hell, but still running. i should have asked if he was interested in selling it.
find out how much they want...

i want one soooooo bad

you've made tons of progress since i last checked in. good work dude!
i keep meaning to stop by. pretty sure imma need a whole s**t ton of custom interior and i havent decided if i want to tackle that or not. definately be talking to u about a good portion of it.

do u do custom upholstery and s**t?
imma need my seats recovered at the minimum..

thanks for looking guys, and more updates this week i promise.
