Title: FS: 1995 Miata w/torsen, rollbar, etc. Post by: Mr. Herdman on March 29, 2019, 04:56:20 PM For sale is our little Miata track rat and summer semi-daily.
The good: - Around 170k miles. - Everything on this little car works - electric locks and windows, AC, original radio, etc. - The body appears to be rust free. - Vinyl top has been replaced at some point. No tears or leaks. - Starts right up and runs smooth. A little ticking on occasion, but usually goes away under load. Typical. - Hawk Street/Race pads with one Mid Ohio track day on them - Racing Beat front sway bar - Cheapo Megan Racing Coilovers. Fairly comfortable though, and always handles great on track. - Hard Dog roll bar - Most of the belts and hoses have been replaced in the past year or so. The questionable: - REBUILT TITLE - Due to hail damage. There is visible hail damage to the fenders, doors, and rear quarters. I think the hood and trunk were replaced at some point. Point is, this is a driver, not a car show queen. However, I do have two new front fenders that go with the car. Driver and passenger, black, still in boxes. - There is a clunk in the front end when steering. I hunted around for the cause last year, but was unable to find the issue. There is a loose from end link, but I'm not certain that is the cause. - There is a smell coming from the center console/shifter/transmission area after driving for a bit. I replaced both rubber shifter boots (but not the outer leather boot), as well as replaced the shifter oil. The smell was still there when I put it in the garage last fall. 3 sets of wheels and tires. Some or all can be negotiated in with the deal. - 15x6.5 Gold Konig Feather Weight w/All Season tires. Half tread or so left. - 15x7 Black König Dial In flow formed wheels with Direzza ZII tires. A track day or so left in them. - 15x8 Gunmetal/Gray Kosei K1 w/RS3s. No life left in the tires. $3,400 w/one set on wheels. $3,700 with all wheels. Or if you don't like those prices, make an offer!

GLWS!
Title: Re: FS: 1995 Miata w/torsen, rollbar, etc. Post by: Mr. Herdman on April 06, 2019, 04:46:37 PM Update: the smell is gone. It was a plastic bag that had gotten stuck to the exahust, and was melting and making a smell.
I was able to tighten the front sway bar end link, but there is still a clunk when turning. Not sure if I’ll make time to continue to hunt it down or not. Make an offer.

$3,200 with one set of wheels, $3,400 with both. Was able to get the end link tighten with new hardware. Front end clunk is still there. Tie rod end maybe? Come get this car.

If so, I *might* be interested. ;)

I would like to come and look at the car if it's still available. Thank you!

I would like to come and look at the car if it's still available. Thank you! Jessica Hart (hartj9@gmail.com) I sent you an email, but didn’t hear back. You can also send me Private Message in this forum. Update on the condition of the Miata: Update on the issues: - The steering clunk seems to be coming from the steering rack itself. I took it all apart, and the tie rods and tie rod ends seem ok. The clunking sound is coming from inside the steering rack. - When I took the car out of winter storage, I noticed that there is a small crack in the vinyl top, right where the top folds onto itself when open. - While I had the car up in the air, I did notice that there is some rust starting right in from of the driver side rear wheel. Somebody should really buy this thing. Title: Re: FS: 1995 Miata w/torsen, rollbar, etc. Post by: Mr. Herdman on May 07, 2019, 02:42:19 PM Any takers at $2,800?
