If I don't have an interview in the morning I'll swing by. Fair warning, if it's anything like the last rainy day 425 meet we could end up being the only ones there.

It would be cool to check out your cars either way, looking at how the weather is now it's probably going to be drizzly

Anybody got a spare Speedo cable? Forgot to disconnect mine and munched it during an engine swap. 5 spd / 4.1:1

**Edit** Nevermind. I bought a new one.

Anyone have an NA driver's seat they'd sell me? I need to get the Miata back on the road before I do something dumb like finance an s60r...

Well I don't want to turn you away from an S60R, but I might. Mine is right hand drive, so my passenger should be your driver. It'll give me an excuse to find some new seats for mine. It's got a rip across the middle along the seam, but otherwise in decent shape. Might need some leather conditioner.

Anybody in the Kent/Renton area have a Hard Dog Double Diagonal (or similar) rollbar I can take a look at? In the market for an upgraded rollbar and I was hoping to see how the rollbar affects visibility in person.

Who is a good local shop for mounting a seat properly? I'm picking up an older bride seat and I'd like to mount my side pieces directly to the floor.

Anyone want a free truck? 83 Silverado 6.2L diesel. Had hot start problems. Been sitting for about a year. Straight body &decent paint. Might be a good one for a 350 swap. Lost title, expired tags, probably not roadworthy... The works. But free.99

I can barely keep my miata fed with parts, but that would probably be a solid tow rig if it got fixed up.
Just noticed your sig, my mom has taken to calling my brg the "pickle car" after the richard scarry books.

so 425 ballparked me at $600 to mount the seat with rails on the floor, humps removed, and provisions for the sub strap, does that seem right? Never had this kind of work done before.

Doesn't seem too outrageous. 425 is typically expensive on everything they do but they are the best in the area so it helps validate it.

Anyone got a spare carpet? Mouse nest destroyed mine. Could do black or tan. If tan I only really need the floor.

Funny you should ask, just got around to taking pictures and posting mine to CL today. It's cut around the under dash area, but otherwise in good condition. Could use a vacuum from the sawdust in my garage. It's tan
