I have always hated this reality. I wonder how many things the design team for the original 240 was able to stick too regardless and because of it they hit a home run?

Check all of the chassis grounds

Unreal! When they sober up we'll talk. 5k!!! Insane!!

An AC car. I would keep that even though you may not need it! If you go to sell it, it may help have a broader audience...As for the transmission. If it's a bolt on mod and easily reversed I wouldn't worry about it. Keep all the original parts....

Beautiful and I really don't like white cars...

I have had salvage yard refuse to sell the whole car. So I told them to cut it in half. I'll buy both pieces. Sometimes that works...

I like the lines of the other car much better, more like an early Z...

Thanks C

I have this mustache bar out of the Z I am currently working on. I believe this bar is correct for the R200 diff's. Can somebody confirm that for me? I am going to rebush it but don't want to do it if it's not the right bar...

I would tend to agree the car wouldn't really have any value unless it was a sub 100 car. One of the very early cars is being redone. It looked like swiss cheese when he started. Even a sub 100 car would be worth less than $2000 to me. You are really just buying the title and the vin plates at this point. You will end up replacing or patching 80% of this car...

Maybe it has something to do with mirror coverage for the guy behind you and the likely location of the car behind you ???

I think he was referring to the glass only. I agree, not much left. Maybe $200 of used parts...

Sarah, It is nice to here from you even for this reason... Do you have a starting point for what you think the car is worth or what you want out of it? NA Miata's are a lot of fun. We had one. With a little more horsepower they would be hard to beat for the money

I would agree that "bolt on" mods don't really count. The car in this add is toast! The firewall is rusted through. Hadn't seen that before!! If he can get $3000 or even half that I am sitting on a gold mine!

So somebody either has really little feet or that is a big wrench...

Come to Zconn in Austin this summer. Not that far away!

I tend to agree with this. I have a make shift booth but I still get some trash in my paint and have flaws. I will probably cut and buff when I'm done which will remove most of them. It is just really hard to get great professional results in a small shop with out a good booth and high end paint guns...

Does it go on the inside or outside? I thought it went on the outside... I had planned on building a brace on the inside or else it will droop at speed and drag the ground

The difference is the Porsche is probably worth 80k finished. The problem is really that equally rusted cars will require about the same amount of man hours to repair but one car is worth a lot more with the same amount of time invested albeit with more expensive parts...

Happy Birthday

No...

I sort of like the way they look all Chrome

That's excellent John. So glad you got it worked out. Let me know if you need any help on the brakes or random tools...

Or I will say "Nee!" "Nee,Nee,Nee..." OK, I will get your a shrubbery!..."

Good for you!
