So I told myself four cars would be the limit. I wish I could say that was enough, but it isn't. I really wanted an NA Miata, so I went out and hunted for one. Five cars is the limit for me now, no more! The maintenance that I need to do on my cars, while not costly, is time consuming.
So I went out hunting for a suitable NA Miata I could buy, and I came across this black example for $600. Has a full drivetrain, healthy NA8C (80,000 km on the motor, 120,000 on the chassis). A little banged up, but.. Was rear ended quite hard, and the frame is smashed beyond repair. However, the entire front half of the car is intact, and the only really damaged parts of the drivetrain are the driveline and diff. I found a Mariner Blue chassis, straight as an arrow, that I'm going to swap all the good parts off this Miata onto. Then this one is going to be sold to the wrecker, and I can get building on the Mariner Blue car. Ripped off the good stuff, motor came out after this pic, and I made a solid $200 out of the chassis. Thinking of maybe selling the S14 project to fund this car, but I have great plans for that car and I don't want to let it go.. |
