Yea so i bought a wrecked 1995 Mazda Miata with only 50,000miles. I MUST be gluten for punishment?! Wile it does need a fair amount of work i will have it done and driveable WAY before i can get the Locost done. So onto the updates with the Miata. A trip to the junk yard and truck full of parts i have most of what i need to make the repair, Hood, fender, Radiator and fans, bumper and cover.
This is how the Miata looked when i bought it... A bit rough, but fixable.
This is the main damage, the upper radiator support is bend the front bumper support, and the left side frame rail is bent.
Frame rail
Trying to pull all the damage out....
Not bad after just a few hours
This was completely collapsed from the accident.
With the help of a friend i was able to get the upper rad support off as well as the bumper support, i've also cut out the damaged frame in this picture.
New frail rail set in place, waiting for the other parts so that i can weld it in.
In the mean time wile waiting for the front end parts there is some damage to the drivers side frame rail , so im removing it and im going to repair that as well.
That is where im at to date.
