    Wow, that is one clean swap. Looks like you put a lot of time into it to make it right. Beautiful.

    Hmm, I remember seeing that yellow NA prototype coupe at Road Atlanta back in the 90's Mazda also has that Burgundy roadster with the big fogs there too at that Miata event. Probably around '96
