Miata noob from norcal
 

Its about time I made an intro thread.

I bought a 2000 Mazda Miata LS (MT) with 52k miles from an insurance auction around November of 2009.

Here are the auction pics.

I still need to find a front bumper reinforcement, bumper cover and paint it...

This will be my daily driver and I plan to turbo it eventually...

just thought I'd share.

Good grab, dude. The rad had to be fuxored, was anything else touched in the wreck? Get a great deal on it?

how much did you pay for it from the auction?

looks like your doing a great job with fixing all the damage! welcome aboard!

the radiator wasn't too bad but I replaced it anyways since I found one for $60

$1600 + dealer/auction fees = $1,900.

thanks.

damn thats not bad at all! that less than what i paid for my 96!

nice find- w/ 52K miles :bigtu:
