    atank's, Exocet Miata Build

    After months of waiting the Exocet Build is in progress, last night the body came off:





    More to come in the coming weeks, I will post pictures of the Exocet as it sits waiting for the chassis to be attached.
    The 97M donor engine, tranny, and front subframe will be substituted for a 2001 VVT engine and 6-speed. The next thing on my to do list is to cut up this 97M body for rust repair, and damaged area parts (Jim your panel is just a few cuts away!!).

    This is going to be awesome! There was an Exocet kit here a guy was selling cheap and I wish I had gotten it.

    This will be a fun thread to follow.
    I've got a lot less horsepower - luckily they are Japanese horses - usually in better shape and more motivated.
