SA & FB Owners Registry

i know this has been talked about and a few threads have encouraged me to start this. i know i dont have the oldest SA but i'll start. we can have some fun with this!


SA22C622752-Leather Sport(M4-solar gold)-mazdaverx713b


we can do this with as much or as little info as you guys want. we can add build dates, colors, anything. the sky's the limit. heck, we can just go with VIN and our name. its up to you guys.

We really SHOULD have a formal registry. The MGB club I belong to has one...it's a database maintained by a member and contains all sorts of information about members' cars. I'd like to do it myself, but I'm not sure I'll want to maintain it forever...my interests tend to wander lol.

Oh yea, VIN SA22C 501090, built 3/78.

My guess would be that t is a 5/78 car as it is only 954 after mine was made,and you have to remember the early ones all got a sequential VIN unlike now where cars going to different countries get different VIN's.I would say your car,and mine were maybe even made the same week,but I could be wrong.

sa22c-566369 is in my driveway... in California.

Not much stock left on it... RB header & strut tower brace, TMC suspension (AFAIK), 4-point rollbar, CSA 15" wheels, race seats with 5-point harnesses, and a cut up (but nicely done) center console with a Clarion head unit.
