FS: 1990 Miata in Austin - $2500.00 - 66,000 miles

No affiliation, but I expected this to be sold the first day, especially when he or she posted it on a perfect top-down weather day. I wonder if there are major unmentioned problems, that is about 4,000 miles a year since 1990. I would definitely be worried about some seals leaking, but I would worry about that with any 17 year old car.

A clutch replacement at 60,000 miles makes me wonder, but that could be from riding it rather than constantly dumping it. It could also signify a FI system that has been removed and sold separately, but I still found the ad interesting. You don't see many '90 models with less than 100K on them.

Yes, that is why I am going to tear down the Silverstone. I can spend about $3000.00 to $4000.00 on it to have a $3500.00 car, (at best), sell it as is for about $600.00 to $800.00, or part it out for almost as much as that red one sold for, and that is with a slightly crunched front area and a non-running engine.

Lots of labor, but it is getting faster each time and I lost somewhat less blood and skin the 2nd time than the first. I will hope for a continuing trend.
