Nice score! Congrats. Looks too nice for a donor. Cheap ones around here looked like they've been dredged up from the bottom of lake michigan.

Nice score. I think you have to expect some issues with a $500 ran when parked several years ago car, so the scope creep shouldn't be a total surprise.
Yep. Miata = 42, the answer to life, the universe and everything.
Only reason Doug didn't put it in the book is that there were no Miatas back then.

Yeah, they tend to do that...
