Whizbang will become famous soon enough
perhaps sometime on a future car (im certain to stay with mazda, very good program for motorsports they have) and i might build myself another rotary. just not in the financial cards...

more progress today and last night. Due to the GSLSE axles being big spline, i had to change out my rear end entirely. Car had the small spline... At anyrate, i put it my reinforced GSLSE axle housing. Once i replace the out bearings for the axles, those and the brakes will be on as well.

Additionally, i have been working on the rear fender wheels. A combination of rust (oregon car) and wanting increase clearance lead me to cutting and grinding. I have done this same ordeal to three FBs now and am getting rather good at it. That said, rust makes thing harder. Rust repairs that have been done previously make it harder still. The pictures below are the rough in. trying to get the wheel well flush . Once i get the welding gas tank refilled i can start welding.
