My son and I part out Miatas, to help fund the racing disease, but this weekend we bought a collection of midget parts (beats me why?) lol

Anyway parts that are here are too many to list, and parts are in varying conditions doors hood fenders /lots trunk lids a 1500 motor with trans (43k) a rebuilt 1275 still in the car. / rib case in car (this was an abandon project, so all I have is the owners word that it was rebuilt) rib case out of car axles diffs wire wheels some chrome and some painted Box's and box's of STUFF Over the next few weeks we will try sorting this stuff out. in the mean time, everything is for sale, just ask. The parts are all in Racine Wi

We are also thinking about going to a brit car swap meet in Wheaton IL on feb 22 so if there is something you would like us to bring there, and its easier for you than coming to Wi speak up!

I have a feeling we bit off a little more than we can chew with this one ;)

Do you have a top? It doesn't have to be great, just something to keep the rain out.

There are 4 tops with the purchase, unfortunately most are just frame, and the one thats not is pretty ratty, like the window is orange and broke. We just nestled the car in the shop, i didnt look at the top thats on the car, but I seem to think it was bad as well, if I find out other wise I will let you know.

one thing sitting in the car, a Brand new steering rack I mean like never used and a New in plastic chrome bumper i would have to look, but I think it was a rear.

to Joliet?

is that wheaton? Im a cheesehead remember

I will be bringing an enclosed trailer with parts and stuff in it, if you are thinking about the whole car, you would need to come to WI. I am not bringing the car down there, for that matter, I am going to be taking stuff off the car next Sunday, to sell. So it prolly would be best before then if your intent is the whole car etc it seems like a fairly soild car, although I admittedly did not look at it that close with that intention. For everything that I have here in one swoop including a clear title I would need 1200.00 I guess its easily 3k worth of parts. unfortunately I am really heavy in the Miata biz, and I looked at this as an expansion on that. Then Realized the old adage, Do one thing very well, not 2 not so well ;) its a 76 already converted to wire wheels, it has a rebuilt 1275 bored .20 over in that "looks" nice, and a rebuilt trans, I have never heard the car run, and dont intend to put the time into it to get it to run. The Su's are rebuilt as well (although I think i am keeping that set for my Bugeye) unless some one takes the lot. there is chrome bumpers on the car already as well. Really its something you need to take a ride to see if your interested.
