in a few more years a project like that might be kinda fun, when you no longer can pick up a classic for a resonable price, (yea i know that time has partly hit)
There is a kit that lets you put 5.0 sbfs into Miatas... and I know several cars with that kit have 5.0s in them. But I can't be sure as to those cars.
Btw with a 5.0 a miata runs 0-60 in under 5 seconds and a 13 second quarter (and thats a stock or mostly stock 5.0). Weeee...
The kit car industry is always looking for fresh ideas cause the cobras and vw based kits have been done to death. There is a gt350 kit out there somewhere with huge fender flares on it and an all tube chassis. This thing would be cool if you could drop it on a chassis that would allow a heavy duty suspension and V8.
Before I read any more posts, I think it fits well, and creates a nice look. The quality of the build is nice as well. I love it. Not my style, I rather 69 sportroofs, but I respect that nothing is overdone on it. VERY CLASSY!
It is certainly different and interesting, I will totally give it that. I would need to see one in person first though before I pass final judgement. Gauranteed to raise eyebrows and pose questions anywhwere you go though. The only thing I don't care for too much is the top up look. The 2 seater roadster look is pretty coolthough considering the only look close is the ronster tonneau cover. If this was combined with the Monster Miata engine upgrade it could be rather stealthy to say the least. It'll be intersting to see if this take soff what other year models they come up with. I wonder what the length and wheel base measurments are in comparison?
so much for "American Muscle"... If you ask me it kind of defetes the purpose of a mustang..
but what ever floats your boat i guess. it is unique, thats for sure. although, again, i don't see the point of makeing a car that is blatenly more unique (stock for stock) and make it look like a fairly common car.
just my 2 cents. but it does look like they did do a good job of doing it.
