Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
So in 2017 I had a front end crash, but i was not at fault, their insurance paid me direct, I had both the steering arms replaced, the front wings and bumper replaced....
Then 2018, just over a year ago after being given a rather large quote to repair my mx5, i instructed the repair only for the work to start and then told to scrap it
So one year on had both inner and outer rear quarters replaced and sprayed.
Onwards and upwards

Re: Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
A lot are being scrapped when in reality they are not beyond repair. Just make sure it's done right first time round and she will last quite a few more years yet.

Wayne has a habit of giving you a shopping list. I only went for a social chat and ended up with a shopping list of tidy-up jobs to do (most done by now).

Re: Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
well after addressing the way to attack i felt it was engine bay first for a couple of reasons ....i need her clean to work on, plus with the colour scheme Chris was going for and silicon coloured coolant hoses and breather hoses are a visual thing so makes sense to clean first.....

Re: Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
AS you all can see, my Mx5 went to Wayne for a list of works, as is expected the list has grown a bit...
The work completed so far on the engine bay looks well amazing to say the least!
So looking forward to driving and feeling the difference :)

Re: Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
Well there are a few things added and some issues that i have hit, the water pump inlet i did mention that chris was on borrowed time, sprung a leak from disturbing the rust that was holding it together, so a very good S/hand one is on its way as we speak to be swapped out, the bag of rear arch liners have been re fixed to the mx as to as the rear spats, the drivers door mirror is now fixed and re bolted on, the wiring to the dual fans as been sorted and added correct and safe, as to as the rear boot brake light wiring, lights left on buzzer as been added, as to as the electric aerial , short intake snorkel , inner door mechs all greased and lubed so the locks and windows work now,drivers door membrane is missing, fuel filter done (that was needed), all brake line unions are undone bar the drivers front which won the battle with rust, so a new hard line on it's way so i am ready to add the braided hoses for the brake upgrade to a 1.8 set up,which i am happy about as she is on some cheap Chinese copy rear calipers, front passenger brake is solid, so well in need of a good sorted working upgrade, drop links are past their best,TRE are past their best but will be changed with the power steering rack going on...

Re: Rebuilding my mx5 mk1, after being told to scrap it :(
Well the drama continues....i went to remover the manual steering rack, and the track rod ends castle nuts are toast, and to be honest the TRE have finished their life any way, i don't know how she as been passing MOT's with them, the dust boots are shot, the socket is spinning on the castle nuts, tried a small socket with a knock on but they are well and truly rusting anf fixed into place.... so it will be the trusty grinder to the rescue and cut them straight off, which Chris bought new ones anyway to be fitted with the power steering, all the other bolts came out with a good spray of penetrating oil , while i was there i noticed the drop links at the front had seen far better days also, plus it looks like she as hit something hard as the wishbone brackets for the links is bent and squashed, and how this mx got around Europe is beyond me , the alternator hinge bolt and nut is, well ..... not there, it is holding on by rust and oxidization only????
The deeper i get the more i find, even more so sorting other peoples work on her before i can move forward....
