So, yeah I am bored today....
About a couple years back I sold my 74 chrome bumper MGB to purchase a very early `91 Miata with just 75k miles. It was a cheap way to have fun sliding a car around corners and not worry too much about an investment. Over the years I've considered buying a Beck 550 Spyder (Porsche 550 remake) but just haven't been able to pull the trigger on a $30k toy I will drive a few times a year. I got an idea, what if I take my Miata and tear off the A pillar, do low bucket seats and possibly add a Lexan small windshield. I'm actually considering doing this. I'm not worried about resale, it's a $3,500 car at most. It was bought with the intention of having fun.
Ideas?
Here is the car now:
And here is what I did in Photoshop (about 20 minutes). I didn't add seats or a Lexan windshield. Just wanted to get a rough feel. Opinions?
