yap its a weekend car thats why im just using tar for the chessie,custom blue paint that easy to match and the s/s bolts give it a tuffer look when you open the doors,boot or bonnet. Most of the work has been done by me so it dident cost me a arm and leg

By striping the car to a rolling shell and preping the cabin and engine bay in 2pac primer, i let the pros deal with the outside i saved around $3500-$4000 and thats no shit with all the work needed to do a full restore on a car its alot of hours and at the rate they charge it all adds up.

well i live in Salisbury NORTH, its not that bad, they are knocking down all the old trust houses, and everyone is building new, and all the problems are moving out to northern elizabeth.

haha no crap dont slow down in them areas i know i live near em all i just keep my foot on the gas ready 2 get the hell away from there! haha

you shouldnt have any trouble getting away from the ''sik VLs and VNs wiff Pod filters''

place in salisbury plains i think called extreme motorsports will supply, fit and paint for $6k (costs more if not standard paint). bit much if you ask me but that's one place you can get it done if you have the money, they got an example of a 33 already with the 34 front end conversion that they are selling too if you wanna have a look.

    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility   
    • I'd say one thing that may make you sell is the same reason the guy with the hard top roof sold his. He got old, and his back was giving him too much grief stopping him getting in and out... Old guy said he was 73! He looked and sounded younger than 73 to me! Or maybe I'm just aligning with old people more...
    • Already looked at a few prior to getting the MX5, really nice car, had all the mod cons, but I wasn't really sold on the new "look" I did miss my 2017 Limited, and I personally prefer the "look" of the older car over the new model, but, when pondering I kept going back looking at MX5's But it was same same for the new ND's, I wasn't sold on the new "look", especially the RF with its weird roof, which only half goes down, like a targa top sort of thing As I stated before, I did look at NC's, but the cars I looked at were PRHT's, but I didn't like their roof line "look" of the PRHT, until I saw the soft top version, (someone on SAU posted a for sale ad for one with a soft top that caught my attention, you can blame them for my choice.....🤣) and.... that old style detachable hard tops were available for them, which keeps the old MX5 more smoother flowing roof line, and the more rounded body style, similar to the NA-NB, to me, the arse end of the ND looks to "modern" Much like how I prefer the NC1 front bar, over the later models How long will I keep this car for is unknown, but currently, there's nothing else out there that "floats my boat" for a small, fun, little "sports car", that I can play with and enjoy looking at and driving But, who knows what the future holds, and going off current new car styling, if I replace it, it will be a older model something something
