Looks straight enough just needs lowering a bit now.

Straight may not be the right word though.

metbandit1 · 21 Apr 2013 at 09:11

Might lower the front but ill leave the back how it is.
If i lower the front though ill need wider wings which means new parts and spraying.

IMO needs new lightweight flywheel and up-rated clutch

Needs a wheely bar I reckon but that rear bumper is big enough, Just stick some rollers on it.

Is that a Kadron K300 I spy poking out the back?

Bought a mk1 MX5 yesterday and armed with some paper with pictures of the queen on them I picked it up today. I'll get some decent photos up once I've polished and waxed it and driven to somewhere pretty. Until then these are the for sale ad pics.

Lordrobs, that MX5 looks ace

Get the sills and arches inspected though, keep on top of the rot that they suffer with. MSN in trust if you've got any questions

Cheers Westy, TBH it is a bit of an unusual one which is why I bought it. First owner died suddenly so for 6 years it sat in a dry garage. The womans husband finally decided to get shot of it in 2006 when the previous owner picked it up. He just happened to have been into rallying and pretty handy with a spanner. The whole underside of the car, insides of the arches, insides of the doors etc were cleaned up and rust proofed. At this point it had 22000 miles on the clock.

Now in 2013 I buy it and it is sitting on a massive 29600 miles

Here is a picture that gives an indication to the state it is in underneath.

Worst bit is the paint and I say worst in the context of the rest of the car and is the one bit I can improve myself.

Underside of your car is in black&white, cool.

I was really confused for about 10 seconds, then I saw the green bin.

Looks very clean.

It was a picture from the for sale ad, not one I took. Anyway, lets just say, it is clean

Took my car out for a spin few weekends ago...

thecremeegg · 21 Apr 2013 at 20:48

I wish mine looked like that underneath

GT3 · 21 Apr 2013 at 20:55

My current pair, driven not detailed

Got rid of my bangernomics Pug 406 as it was soul destroyingly slow and brought my MR2 back into service as the daily driver for the summer.

That mx5 underside, bloody hell!
