Bad: the car has some rust on the Passenger rocker and is starting to show on the driver rocker panel. patch panels welded in would be a good idea. no problem if you can weld. the tires are on there way out. possible bad strut mount (R/R) and maybe wheel bearing. i am not sure it is just from listening i have not checked it out. i drive it everyday and have no problems with the car. driver seat headrest zipper is ripped. right/rear frankenstein clip on hard top is busted off. have all parts for the new one except main plate. minor scuffs and dings as usual

THanks Jay.
That car looks clean. Too bad it's in Philly. I want a hardtop. Probably will get one eventually. I'm gonna go check out that 60K mile Miata on craigslist tonight. Anything I should be looking for shane? Usual problems?

test drive it for sureness. rev it up to 3k and hold for a few seconds, listen for miss fire. take a look at the underside, look under the hood and inspect.

 

[hooked_on4]

I'd fly to pick up a car I really wanted.

I dunno what miata you're talking about.....

 

[97GreenEX]

Good advice Hecz
Shane it's the link that you posted here earlier. I started talking to him earlier at like 8am.

Nice Shane that's PERFECT. THanks

 

[rey rey]

ugh, you confused me dude. lol. i think there's going to be more wheel in his wells, since he's going positve.

 

[hooked_on4]

Hector

think of it this way
that wheel is mounted as if your looking at the drivers side from behind.
Positive means there's more wheel in front of the hub just like in the 1st pic, that's the lip. Negavite the hub is closer to the outside of the wheel so more wheel is behind the hub no lip.

positive = sticking out vatoloco style
Negavie = more into your wheel well.

the bigger the number the more space there is from the hub to the middle of the wheel.

At least I think this is how it works lol

 

[anfrey]

nah, i wasn't lit at the time Anf. Just some deep thoughts/feelings.

ah ok, it seemed like it was a high post lol... but yeah, we're family here
