Been Busy doing this.....
[B]I first bought us a Blue "slightly wrecked" Miata from an Insurance Company that turned out to have a bad engine also...."UGH". So this put me to searching/waiting on another to pop up at the Insurance Auctions. I finally bought a one owner, fully restored end to end 5 spd manual Car(even new top/upholstery/tires, etc.) wrecked really hard in the frontend. I then cut the frontend inner structure off both cars, then put the parts back on the White One from the Blue One. Pics of my ordeal.....[/B]
