I'd put better rubber on it. It will still be a complete blast to drive and in some ways more enjoyable. It's not like you won't be able to break it loose if you want to. Oh, and sweet car, I have always loved those things. I need more money.....

That's very interesting, and the current bid is $75K which is crazy if you ask me.

Perfect for the person with more money than <deity>. They can put it right next to their 2022 Red Bull lookalike simulator:

I got a great shot of a race prepped one with wide slicks, a turbo Miata engine and a big ass spoiler with Lotus written on it. This website won't load the pics though for some reason

So this just in, the old girl is almost done. She weighed in at 1467 LBS today, up a 100 LBS from factory but with the bored and stroked 1275 I think she'll be pretty quick. My bride is more interested in comfort.

My apologies for the size of these pix. They're older minimalist shots of my Exige, and I don't feel like tracking every folder down to resize them lol.

Idk crap about old-school classic cars. But, my old used car manager owns a classic car dealership now. He had a car show early morning today and I went to support/help out.

Took some of these pictures of cars he's got for sale.
