DEEDUBBS new Mazda!

Having owned 2 NB Miata's prior to the 8 the MX5 bug bit me in the *** again. Found a killer deal on a 92 NA Miata.





It has 104k miles and a clean title. Needs a little bit of work but I plan on giving it a lot of work! hahaha Best of all I picked it up for $1400. This will not replace my crx as a daily driver but a second weekend car!

shhhh man!!! i can't ruin the surprise.. The build will take aproximately 2 years to complete. I'm choosing the parts for this car very carefully but it's been done to death so it's pretty much a cookie cutter method! As far as weekend cars, my driveway is in a weird position so I have to move about 3 cars just to pull the 8 out of the garage, the miata just sits in the driveway, so it's easy to pull in and out.

The car needs some work though. Going to a convertible top shop tommorow morning to check some new tops out. More than likely going with a a vinyl top with glass unzippered. =)

sweet pick up...

with 100K on the odometer, it still has another 100 to go....as i am sure u know plenty of people boost their miatas AFTER 100K and it lives long and strong to 200K....

definitely keep us updated on the plans/build

The miata is definitely one of my top favorite cars, aside from the rx7! Good job with the purchase, can't wait to see what happens to this little monster!
