      Ill trade you 3 bent basketweaves and 1 bottlecap for those terrible looking wheels. Previous owner of the bottlecap even did some pretty "trick" paint, lil black in between the spokes!

      Need more pictures please! Car looks like a great start, love the wheels and bumpers it all looks pretty nice.

            What a small world, I ran into this car at autozone in Auburn, MA a few months back. I'm not sure if it was you or if you just bought the car but I told the guy "nice car!"

              That would be the guy I bought it from. He was from charlton. I just picked up the car last week. The car looks better in pictures than in person. But it will be looking better soon.

              Thanks again everyone. I love it so far. Once I work out the minor stuff i will be really happy with it.

                That sounds like a really good deal. You don't want some cash on top for that deal? Haha.

                Thanks. And I will be ordering one of those for the front bumper.

                  I figured if I didnt ask for cash it might make up for any attachment you were having to the wheels. Trust me! 14" diameter, six and a HALF inch wide! You put the bottlecap on the side you want to try and drift since its half an inch skinnier than the weaves. Let me know if you want some pro drift wheels, deal wont last!

                  Get some emblems on those asap.

                    That's my old car I was the second owner and I think you may be the 5th.

                    Racing dynamics front and rear sway bars and strut bar
                    H&r springs
                    Dinan chip
                    2.79lsd

                    Thing was mint I sold it to my buddy who sold it to his buddy who sold it to his then to you. Loved that car but had to sell it. Did anyone fix the rear floors yet? The first owner let them go


                    "matt325e who are the two chicks rocking the white Miata with the pink stripes lol do they auto x it?

                    lol i joke i joke." "that would be my ex and no definitely not;)"

                      The floors were "fixed" at some point but i will probably do a little more with them because i dont like the way it was done. Almost everything sale about the car is awesome. I am making some changes to it slowly. It's more of a toy than a practical car for me. But it runs like a champ so I am not afraid to drive it anywhere.

                        Thing is definitely a good rig, the guy that bought it off my buddy liked to blow donuts in it unfortunately. Not sure if you knew but it's also got a stage two clutch in It as well, was done right when I bought it.

                            The clutch i didnt know about but it would explain why its hard to game off without chirping tire a little even when driving normally. It's only going to get worse when I install the 4.10 diff I bought and welded up. I knew it was driven hard at some point before I bought it because a friend of mine saw it doing donuts in a parking lot in oxford. I won't be very nice to it anyway so if it blows up I can motor swap it.

                              I didn't love them at first but they grew on me. But they are heavy as heck.
