FREE Miata !!!
I got this for free yesterday. The PO wants me to put a stereo in their other Miata and I did pay $45 for a day of tow dolly rental but other than that it was free. Yes, it is a rust bucket for sure but it should be good for a few projects. I'm thinking about putting a gas grill under the hood. OR, pulling the engine and doing the old rods as legs and pistons as feet artwork thing. OR, copying Paul's bumper on the ceiling thing. OR, hell, I don't know. Any ideas?
FWIW, the doors/mirrors have been pulled off for a later sell, the finish panel looks "OK", and that is about it. Not too much to scavenge on it. Will probably do a very quick strip and then call the salvage yard to have them tow it away. I'm not sure I feel like cutting it in pieces and taking it to the scrap yard to sell at $.04 a pound...

Yeah, i've hear of people using the rears like that... but the front would be way cooler.
OR
Use some of the fron and some of the rear and make the worlds shortest Miata..but as a trailer :lmao:
You should add a big ricer aluminum wing on it and some Sportmax's

Actually, it is pretty far off but I wouldn't have a problem bring it with me to Deals Gap this year.

We washed it up and the fender looks pretty good. Some light scratches and a very small deep scratch towards the bumper but that is it. I wouldn't be willing to ship so are you up for a road trip <G>...
