Just for the h_ll of it ;-)

I sold some parts to a guy who was entering his Miata into this race or something similar where he had a $500.00 limit, and I had to give him receipts so he could prove how little was spent.

Sounds fun, even though my performance car interest is dropping away at the same rate as my expendable dollars.

OK. Here's something on-topic. My plastic back window is cracked and bronzed. I've found a place that will, they say, remove the top, remove the window flap, replace the window with a new one, and put it all back together for $150. Sounds like a good deal to me.

It's possible to sew in a new piece of plastic without removing the top or rear curtain, and may cost even less. Moreover, you don't risk damage to top or rain rail. Check with shops that make custom boat tops.

Will do. Thanks.

Well obviously, you need to sell more parts to LeMons racers ;-)

What the he_l are you guys doing, trying to 'hijack' my thread back 'on topic'? ;-)

That would be a lot of parts, eh? I may have to try that greed thing, it seems to work well for many people.

On a side note, I may actually have to keep the red Miata, that may actually be my least expensive option. At least I can do most of my own repairs on it and have gotten good at sourcing parts.

I may save up for something like that 55K mile 2004 Mazdaspeed a bit down the road, or go for a NC PRHT is things ever recover somewhat economically for myself.

I can't understand why you didn't grab the HUGE TAK car when you had the chance?

That was a Hugh WING & TAK! I had forgotten it until Lanny reminded me. That car was also "fast, fast and yep ferios!"

Passing that one up will forever be regretted. ;-)

I regret not archiving the ad in it's entirety on my hard drive.

We ALL regret that slip up! Chris

Couple of friends of mine are going to be running that race... not sure if it's this year or if the car is still in the process of being lightened.

If you get a chance, go check it out, it's quite a hoot! Chris

Sure looks that way.
