Glad you guys are enjoying the pictures.

Here is the finished setup in the white 240sx so you get an idea how the pedals work. Its tough getting pictures down there.

Good idea on those pedal extensions

IMO flip the vert and use funds to build the clean car :thumbsup:

Still up in the air about the cars, I'm going to do everything I can to the vert to clean it up with tools already in the garage.


More work on this. I need wiring diagrams...

I would keep the vert. Something about it makes me love it... no idea what it is.

But I would keep it. It would make for a cool daily once cleaned up.

Got a little work done today, will take some pictures in the morning when its light.


Really leaning towards keeping old Greg (the Vert).


Here is the Miata video a few people have mentioned.


I love Miatas. So much.

Its been a minute, time to update.

The cold weather has been preventing me to work here in WI. I recently sealed off my garage and got a heater, so its time to pick up the pace.

awesome photography man! good luck with your projects!

plastidip tends to discolorise after about 6 months in the sun...well you can always peel it off and do it again, but i just wanted to say, its not a permanent solution...
