Picked up a cheap 4wd.
It is a 1993 Mazda Proceed Marvie, all stock.
It seems like a nice little toy. Anyone know anything about these? From my understanding they are the Mazda b-series running gear and frame with a different body.
Picked it up yesterday and the first trip out was today. Took it to Red-Rocks trail. Got stuck once but a 5 min dig out and some wood and we were good to go. Pics.
Does it have a d35 ttb like the Mazda Navajo?
Chadnutz wheeled a Mazda...
I know nothing about this thing or any mazdas for that matter. If you want to know about the axles then I can snap a pic later. BTW they are 6 lug (are they toy axles?) Got some more pics of the trail today and the mazda. Post them up later.
Why is there a side mirror glued to the front fender?
Why not!?!Quote:

That's some beautiful country, would love to take a visit one day.
Cool pics...
Looks like it's equipped with Lund window vent shades and rear roof rack extension...
That goofy mirror is required over here for any vehicle longer than a certain meter length (don't know the exact number). I do agree it is stupid though.
No one here knows about Mazdas?
The Mazda expert was run off long ago.Quote:

I went to the part store yesterday to find out that it is basically a 2.6L Ford Bravo/Courier. Interesting, I will have to research it a bit.Quote:

As promised:
A few going up "Hells Gate", a very intimidating name for a tame obstacle.
And getting stuck, 5 mins digging out and some wood and we were good.
