Got a car!


I’ve been monitoring CraigsList for Miatas for a while. I’m looking for first generation – ‘90 to ’96 – preferably ’94 or later because they have a passenger air bag. Has to be manual transmission, the rest is a trade off - does it make more sense to fix it or pay for it up front. So I thought I found a car, but while trying to arrange to see it, a better car popped up. It’s a ’92 with a straight body, replaced top, AC, manual steering, alloys and a blown head gasket. Went up and looked at it and found that ir wasn’t the head gasket, but a leaky water pump. Nice, that makes the resell of the engine a little easier. For an extra $100 they even delivered it.
