    Found some junk yard Miatas? Post the info!

    I was a local pick & pull called Brandy Brow in Plaistow, NH, and looked at two red NA Miatas is great condition, that they are parting out. These cars are located in their "Special Lot" that contains all of their cleanest parts cars. If you want stuff off cars in this lot, they will send someone out with you, or will get it off the cars for you, so you won't have some riff raff ripping everything in a dash apart, just to get a radio. FYI, there is a hard top on one of the Miatas! I asked about price, and the worker threw out $600.00, but I feel they might be open to offers.

    -Cheers,

    Jim

    That's exactly how I scored my HT for $300. They wanted $500 for the whole car with the top.

    I deal with the same issue here in Toledo. I'd love to find a clean VLSD for a reasonable price!
    2012: Purchased Miata, Laid off 3 days later. 4th place overall (default!), NWOR SCCA (RTR)
    2013: Budget RTR build, massive increase in participation, 3rd place overall, NWOR SCCA (RTR)
    2014: Suspension and more active competition in STS. 3rd place overall, NWOR SCCA
    2015: Time for some "form" and vintage styling (while still racing NWOR, of course).

    Seriously, where do they get sent in the NW? Covey's are damn crooks with their pricing.

    I hope you got what you were looking for. I went back and saw both hard tops gone, plus one Miata looked like it had a few parts removed, and then moved to the main lot.

    Went to Brandy Brow this weekend. They had three Miatas in the Pick & Pull area. The interiors were exposed to the elements, and a couple of the better pieces were taken, but, there were good doors, hoods, fenders, and a-arms (brakes shocks and such).

    I got a couple light connectors and some misc hardware for $5.00
