WTB Cheap(ish) Miata Project Car

Post by Areddi »

Hi Everyone,

I am looking for a cheapish Miata project car, preferably an NA since I am trying to do it on a budget. Car would mainly live as a third vehicle for the fiance and I, and may some day see some autocross time. I expect something that will need some work, so as long as it is a stick and not full of rust that's pretty much my only requirements.

If anyone has anything or knows someone who does let me know!

I just this ad on craigslist.

I would check for rust on this car. If you're looking for an NA, the 1990-1993 has the 1.6 engine while the 1994-1997 has the 1.8 engine.

Bump.

Still kicking this idea around, possibly for a winter project. Let me know if anyone knows anyone. I want something that needs some work and is cheapish. NA preferred.
