SOLD - LS Miata find in Houston TX - SOLD
|
That's a screaming deal. Wasn't someone looking for one already built?
|
I was, but I have bought half of the parts to build mine.
|
such a steal ...
where can i sell a kidney |
If the body has no rust and has never been wrapped around a pole... If the powertrain seems in reasonable shape, and it's put together fairly well..., then I don't see how you could lose on this opportunity!!! Just for the parts alone, it's a decent deal. GLWS!!!!! Hope the buyer joins this forum if he/ she isn't already here. That would be a fun car to get to know!

Dammit, you have got to be kidding me! This is pretty much exactly what I want. Why do I have to be house shopping right now? Damn me and my stupid priorities!
Btw, is the starter issue he describes a common problem in these swaps? |
Every time I see one of these I think man I should just sell all the stuff I've bought and buy this instead......
|
I'm going to look at it this weekend. Imagine having BOTH. A 302 and an LS Miata!!!! I'm crazy.

You can't go wrong. I think you could do well even as a flip/investment if it's in decent shape. With just some simple prettying up you could do well with a "un- personalized" conversion. ..bit of an oxy moron but I think you get my drift. |
So yeah, I bought it. I will take delivery on Friday afternoon when I have time to swing by with a trailer. I now have 3 Miatas.
1- 1992 SPEC Race Car 2- 1992 5.0 Monster Conversion 3- 1996 LS2/3 Conversion Think I will sell off the 1992 track car to justify this. |

Awesome! a Little TLC and it will be perfect
|
Gunpilot, I officially hate you LOL.
|
Despise, yeah that's the word that comes to mind. :)
|
Lol. Could not pass up this deal. He used a professional shop for the install and bought just about everything FM sells! Interior needs some assembly, and wiring needs clean up.
I'll be posting a lot here shortly asking all the LS guys some build questions. Think I'll do my first one now. |
This is a solid "you suck" if I've ever seen one! Looking forward to the build/tlc thread.
|
I'm pretty jealous too but sure glad the car is going to be in good hands! You gonna keep them both? Which one are you bringing to Mitty next year?
|
LOL, I just stumbled over here, "Cars for sale" to find more pics. This thing is NICE!! Enjoy and please keep the build thread alive and full of photos!

I just registered today looking for a Miata with V8 and looks like you've found a "silver bullet". I live in Beaumont TX about 85 miles East of you. Congrats on what looks to be a great find. Currently I drive a 99 Corvette with HPDE (cooling & handling) mods but the cost of consumables is consuming me. Eating lunch now but be back later to learn more about V8 Miatas.

Lol. I originally contacted him to buy extra parts and ended up buying entire car. Check out my build thread for more details. Been upgrading and making changes. I have a 5.0 and LS if you are ever in the area and want to check them out.
|
I'll look up your build thread and yeah one day I'd like to see your car(s). Thanks
