I'd put better rubber on it. It will still be a complete blast to drive and in some ways more enjoyable. It's not like you won't be able to break it loose if you want to. Oh, and sweet car, I have always loved those things. I need more money.....

That's very interesting, and the current bid is $75K which is crazy if you ask me.

It was a lot of fun to track, not so much to daily. LOL

Perfect for the person with more money than <deity>. They can put it right next to their 2022 Red Bull lookalike simulator:

I got a great shot of a race prepped one with wide slicks, a turbo Miata engine and a big ass spoiler with Lotus written on it. This website won't load the pics though for some reason

Murf the Surf · 03-31-2023, 06:01 PM

So this just in, the old girl is almost done. She weighed in at 1467 LBS today, up a 100 LBS from factory but with the bored and stroked 1275 I think she'll be pretty quick. My bride is more interested in comfort.

Rono63 · 03-31-2023, 09:44 PM

Hopefully you wife won’t get mad when you are buzzing around in this instead of the bug.

My apologies for the size of these pix. They're older minimalist shots of my Exige, and I don't feel like tracking every folder down to resize them lol.

Yesterday's springtime temps and sunny skies = good day to exercise them....

Mosaud1998 · 04-02-2023, 02:44 PM

Idk crap about old-school classic cars. But, my old used car manager owns a classic car dealership now. He had a car show early morning today and I went to support/help out.

Took some of these pictures of cars he's got for sale.

Looks similar to a VW Bug. Don’t you think?
