**Dutch** · 9-17-06, 13:17

as most of u know my old red coupe was totalled while parked. so i bought another one.. things from the red are going to be swapped onto this "new" one.
heres one before the tear down..

empty interior, did this to make the rewiring more easy

swap the trunk since i had this debadged

the parts which need to be installed..

what do u think

here are the latest pics from the red coupe.. snif.

man i loved this car.

Man that car looks really hot.

one of the best looking 1st gens on the site for real!

**MetalMatrix** · 9-17-06, 13:48

I'm not fond of the way the 1G's look but your old red one looked damn nice.

**esembe** · 9-17-06, 14:39

I love 1g's with the trim painted to match!

**St_Terror_GT** · 9-17-06, 18:20

That last one of the car getting carried into the truck was sad, but good to see you already started on another project, looks real good, and I am sure this new one is going to look as good or better than the last one. Good luck with everything.

The red one looked sweet... i bet the blue one will also.

Maybe a n00b question but whats the diffence between a 626 Coupe and a MX6?

**BartMX** · 9-17-06, 19:35

^^ Good Question

In Europe the first Gen's were all 626 Coupe's from my recollection.

i just looked up the 626 coupe and the mx6 and i dont see any major differences

Coming along nicely Dutch

Quite sad to see Red getting taken away like that though, we dont have any of those trucks around here. You get all teary eyed watching it? You had one of my favorite 1Gs, I almost did

Dutch, your car was one of my favorite 6's. So sad to see it go. Do you have any pics of where it got hit and the other vehicle that hit it?

**mx6GT91** · 9-17-06, 22:47

Hey Frank. Glad to see youre still around. Glad to see you still have the 626/Mx6 love.
The new one looks great. Best color of course

Red will be missed.

Very nice MX-6 GT

By the way...

What is your suspension setup?

Your car sits perfect to me.

That's the way I want mine to sit.

Thats a great way to come and pick up a car.

**AMD IS THE BEST** · 9-18-06, 1:51

I had to do the same thing :-(, just in my case an elderly woman cut me off. Good luck with the new project, i'm sure it will come out equally as awesome if not better. Thats how mine worked out. Nick

PS - The old one was defintaly awesome!

**RbluEMx6** · 9-18-06, 1:53

It is sad to see your old car being hauled off like that.

At least it went out in style. Good luck on your new project, looks like some steady progress.
