PartyWagon Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Just got offered a 1992 Miata 5MT convertible for $250, it ran before being parked 3 months ago (parked under a carport thing in their back yard) but they aren't mechanically inclined so it's a crap-shoot on issues...is it worth it? Should I buy this as a second Chump Car? Make it idiot-proof and someone will make a better idiot. .../PartyWagon/... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanGT Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 PW, I thought you can't fit in a Miata. Are you thinking of running a second Chump Car team? Or are you thinking of using this as our spare Chump Car? I think if we get this car as our spare Chump Car, it could be a logistical nightmare... 2 sets of spare parts, tires, etc. One's FWD, and the other is RWD, etc. I don't know what the others think but I am going to vote No. . .

NSFW Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I vote for focusing our Chump car efforts on the Escort, for a couple races at the very least. When the Escort is done I could perhaps be persuaded to start over on something RWD or AWD though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you aren't going to do it, I'd possibly be interested. Wife would kill me but it would be worth it in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PartyWagon Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 Got a look at this thing in the daylight but only briefly, the front DS fender is 2/3 primer gray & the hood looks misaligned due to damage. Waiting to get the full story on this before I make a decision. May just buy it and let the friend who is my link to this guy drive it until he can get his own car... Already getting a 'fun for the weekend' car, the SVX! Then there's the 'tinker toy'...details will come when sales are finalized next week.

Tracer-X Posted March 13, 2010 Author Share Posted March 13, 2010 * * * Next Chump Car Work Day Saturday MARCH 20th or Sunday March 21st* * * I just kinda wanted to have another day to hit it before the PIR swap meet in PDX on April 10th. This doesn't need to be a big work weekend. I figured that if we had a few guys for 4-5 hours we could get some big stuff done. The list: Install new fuel tankMore seam weldingPaint weldsInstall rear brakesFab up some strut barsFab up a tow barMore wiring/de-wiringDash?Lube bearingsWire extra tail lightsAnything else? Give me some feedback on which day, Sat or Sun, would work best for anyone who can come and help. Jump on it, Let's do it, Ride it, My Pony...

Early Happy Birthday wishes to you! BTW, is this the big three-oh birthday? It's quite unlike you to be so extravagant for an ordinary birthday celebration. . . I have enough drama for now.....
