April 23, 20195 yr comment_573999 You won't have a problem finding the rest of the tools, I see them going fairly cheap every year at our Z swapmeet and I'll bet @zKars has quite a few sets.

Personally I would opt for the latter, but either way you came up big! Congrats! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I need to figure that out. Although I’ve always been a Miata guy, I am developing feelings for the car. I really would like to find a local buddy with Z expertise who could look at the car, tell me what it’s worth and what needs to be done to it to make it 100%. At that point I’d be able to make a more informed decision.

That car looks to be awfully close to 100%, do the rust checks as previous guys have indicated in this thread. My brother in law is a Miata guy, I've driven his... compared with the Z, personally I'd take the Z car. They have a way of growing on you quickly. ? Congrats again! I love to see people do well!

April 26, 20195 yr comment_574244 Miatas handle like a dream but the torque of the Z is addictive. btw you may want to re-fit the front grill. It seems to be off a little.

April 26, 20195 yr comment_574289 There is a center mounting point and I suspect it is bent upward.
