Not tribute related but just thought I'd share some pics of my Mazda b250 pick up.....
Its a 2001 jap import model (suppost to be the same as a ford ranger).
After loading half a pack if breeze blocks on the back (the spanish blocks witht the holes in) so shouldnt be too heavy. The back decided to snap off after just 500m drive!.....
After then taking the back cab off, I find this....
The chassis on both sides is so rusted than it just cracked and fell to bits!
The car is only 14 years old and got imported to the uk in 2008 so its only been in the uk for 6 years or so!
Ive just bought some angle to repair it. Will get it welded up and painted tomorow. I only bought it to use it to renovate a villa in spain and the 1st time it had to actually do some graft, it let me down! At least the rust cant get any worse with it being here!
