Default From Bagged VW to Slammed Miata

Decided I wanted to make a change. I wanted another manual, and a small fun car to drive. So obivously I picked up a miata

Went from this:


To this:







So far ive replaced this shift knob which i will sell:


Roll bar came rusted and raw:


Sanded it down and painted it white which matches the new white shift knob:


In the shop getting the timing done and broken radiator:/ :


So far I have ordered new wheels and tires. In the near future I want to sell the bride and stock passenger seats and get matching bucket seats from a local company, maybe a nardi wheel and shift knob in the future too. It will be my daily too fyi.

and follow me on instagram @natestevo

So just got the miata back from my mechanic who owns Jsport up here in the PNW. He did the timing belt, new radiator, new seals and head gasket and the list goes on. Here he is in it:
He's a big guy...

So much joy driving this car:

New wheels will be here in THREE DAYS!!!
