    But the potential... jack up the grill and slide a complete deuce under it! The rest, just a crusher

    I'm trying to say something upbeat or positive.
    I'm sure that there are some folks that like it... both of them.
    It has a tremendous future as a parts car.
    That's all I got.

    What is hanging on the back of the '32 shell?

  5. If you put the Miata sheetmetal back on the front it would be a very fast and exciting drive.

    Since this thread is "This is just wrong." I have something to add.
    About 10 years ago, my son's wife put her late model Chrysler 300 into the ditch and busted up the plastic front end. The deal is, she drives 30 miles each way to work. It was a bad snow storm, and he told her to stay home, and her work place told her to stay home, but she decided she should drive to work, she made it less then 1/2 way, came home on the hook, cost more then she would have made for the whole day.
    They had to order the part, but the car still drove, just needed a headlight. I had one of those old round headlight off of a snow plow hanging around in my garage. My son zip tied and wired in the round headlight so she could drive the car. She ended up driving it around for about a month like that. Eric's card 003.jpg Eric's card 004.jpg

    Using hallucinogenic drugs while customizing a Miata

  12. I can say positive things about that Miata, it appears to have a V8 in it probably an LS so it's probably fun as hell to drive and you know it's fast because it's damn ugly so you want to go fast enough that nobody sees you in it. The Chinesium $140- 32 ford grill definitely helps it... It's probably good for 40 HP.
    Now someone needs to cut the rest of the body off and graft on a T roadster body

  14. Maybe better than scrapping the four door, but I’m not sure. If this was an elky butcher, then no way. 7595E8EE-FB02-4F6C-8061-186F00D61F60.jpeg

    The deuce shell on that Miata is ridiculous, aside from that, Miatas are fun as hell. My friend had a turbocharged Miata in the early 2000's and I was driving/racing it against another friend's supercharged Miata when the FMU bladder split and leaned out the motor and knocked a hole in the piston. We did win the race though.

    I was on FB Marketplace last night looking at Miatas that I don't need.

    but their own Bōsōzoku style is very strange and the polar opposite.
