1993 Miata - front end hit

Post by peterfontana » Tue Jul 21, 2009 8:20 am

Our once pristine 1993 Miata Limited, black with tan interior/top, excellently maintained, was totaled in a front end collision (see link below for pictures). This car was our family baby. My daughters brought it to the track about once a year. 134,000 miles. I recently replaced the clutch and installed a Racing Beat exhaust (without intermediate resonator). It has a Hard Dog 4 point roll bar (single diagonal) and G-Force 5 point harnesses. Enkei FP-1 forged rims (15x7) for track with Toyo Proxes RA1 205/50-Z15, all with complete tread.

It was hit hard in the front, enough to break the rear differential mount (through the torque beam). I can’t see if the crank pulley is damaged; but the impact seems very high, so I assume the core engine is fine. Everything was in excellent condition before the crash except the seats had splits in the leather.

At this point we would prefer everything to go together - come take everything for $750. See http://rides.webshots.com/album/573599676cUJXvS for pictures. The car is in Wrentham, MA.

(The driver is fine - a testament to Mazda engineering).

Hi Carl - methinks your nose may need calibration. Did you see the pictures? The doors don't latch anymore...

But hey - if you're up for it, you can argue with Joel Adams about who will get to buy it.

Thanks for all your interest. The car was sold on Craig's List.
