AWD Turbo Mercury Tracer
Ive always been an all around car lover. But i am truly at heart a Mazda lover, but why the mercury tracer you ask? The Mercury Tracer LTS was a direct clone of the 1st generation Mazda Protege LX, with a Ford Escort like shell, along with the Ford Escort LX-E. Like most of the ford/mazdas from the 90’s it was gifted with the heart of Mazda. And that takes us to Kevin, I first met him back when i was a junior in high school. When he bought a motor i had for my escort, and I was happy to see that he actually raced them. So he showed up with a giant trailer, and took my motor away that i spent all my Mickey D’s money on away. Fast Forward years later i run into kevin on www.mazdas247.com. And i find out about his new 2008 GRM project he had planned. AWD Mercury Tracer for under $2008.00….impossible most will say. But the lack of popularity for 90’s mazda helps make things very possible. And the interchangeability makes it even easier. Kevin also has a few nice miatas. A true car builder!!I have a few pictures from the build. But to view all the pictures and progress of the build form last year visit: http://www.mazdas247.com/forum/showthread.php?t=123708939
