I saw this car live at the Atlantic City car show and auction yesterday. It looks pretty good until you look under the hood and see Mazda emblazoned on the top of the engine. No comments on it from me, I thought that someone may be interested. Link below.

Is it my imagination, or does it look kinda "stubby"... like the hood to trunk deck ratio is all wrong? Otherwise it doesn't look too bad.
Seems a bit pricey. Combining that kit with a "monster Miata" would be a real hoot (they used to shoehorn 5.0L Ford engines into a Miata).
Cheers,
Used to drop 289s into a lot of things... MGs, Triumphs, etc. While I may be a Mustang nut, Miatas, like MG Midgets, Mini-Coopers, etc, are fun cars... and there's nothing wrong with having fun.
WEll it did say the donor car was a Miata...

It does look weird. proportions are off and it looks like the roof was chopped. Fugly.

Yeah, it's definitely "off". But this is what the Mustang probably would've looked like had Lee made it a 2-seater. Good thing he didn't.
Naw. Even with seats back there, the Mustang is still a 2 seater... LOL. And look at the TBirds (I mean the real ones).
It was pretty "OFF" looking but like others have said... They are using a much smaller car as a base chassis. The "off" is what caught my attention, not bad looking at all when you're right next to it, at least until I looked under the hood. Very compact under there.
