McLovin?!! Great name!

What part of Gloucester do you live in? I grew up there.

 

ya know Robin if bring the primer black FC
(with the LS-1 swap in it that is currently up for sale for the unbelievably low low price of $10k)
of yours down to Starbucks tomorrow night I'll bring my now primer black Miata out

 

 

I am going to try to make it out there....maybe we can park beside each other..! Looks good though! Are you going to keep the rear end red?

 

I plan on keeping the tail red till I do ta full repaint of the car - it's the only part of the paint job that's still good

and I rather like the look of it
I definitely need to do another coat or 2 of primer
whenever we get another decent weekend

 

gloucester point near farmfresh

anyone have a black front bumper for a FC

 

Hey guys. A widow of a older gentleman here in the Richmond area (he had emailed me about buying some of my 1st gen parts) emailed me looking for a reputable mechanic who works on 1st gens. She wants to keep his car but can't really work on it. I'm a hack at best but looking for someone I'd feel comfortable recommending to her. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Had a done a search first (yea I'm lazy at times) I would have found Mitchum Enterprises as niburu has recommended. Any other options for 1st gens or has everyone had good experiences there?

 

it also depends on what she needs done, any competent mechanic should be able to work on everything except maybe the motor on that car
ie; you need to be a rotary specialist to do the brakes

Whatsup VA?

 

You are new here. I am assuming you know Dave?

Fill us in on your ride, or at least your intentions!

Welcome!

 

FIFY

thank you for the brain fart correction
I must not have had my coffee yet when I typed it

not as far as I know

 

I think he was talking to me...

No, who is Dave? How would I know him?

I just picked up a 86 GXL for $400 in Great condition. Really the only thing wrong with it is the TPS (which I'm working on getting).

My only intentions are to make it an Awesome DD/comfortable cruiser. Clean up the exterior and make it look nice, a decent exhaust, maybe an intake, clean up the interior and put in a decent sound system. All in all, just make it a very clean, good looking FC.


OH yeah... and fix the sunroof in time for warm weather...

 

I am Dave

c'mon down to one of the Starbuck's meets some Friday

 

You guys doing a meet tonight?
I’m thinking about coming up there after traffic dies down tonight.

 

I am sure some people will be there, not sure how many as cold as it is. I haven't been up there in a while, but I am going to try to make it tonight.

 

"I'm afraid. I'm afraid, Dave. Dave, my mind is going. I can feel it. I can feel it. My mind is going. There is no question about it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I can feel it. I'm a... fraid. Good afternoon, gentlemen. I am a HAL 9000 computer. I became operational at the H.A.L. plant in Urbana, Illinois on the 12th of January 1992. My instructor was Mr. Langley, and he taught me to sing a song. If you'd like to hear it I can sing it for you..."



I would, probably today even, but my car isn't even registered yet. I'm waiting on a new title...

 

"Dave's not here man"

but he will be gettin coffee tonight
look for the above posted miata or a shiney black FC

How loud is it?

 

Anybody want to buy that fd that I found? I’m thinking that I’m going to sell it and pay off part of my school loan, and do some more work on my turbo fc.

Good:
Touring
73000 miles
Good compression
Boosts good
Good body.
Mostly stock

Bad:
no 5th gear (no grinding like a bad synkro (sp), just nothing there)
Rear bumper is burnt
Needs some miner body work and paint (there is some plastic in the fender that needs to be ground out and done right, nothing major)
Dash is painted red

Pm or call me if you are interested, I’m not sure how much to ask for it, so I will consider offers.
