    Scale models and some of my favorite momentos went in to an antique display cabinet I found.


    I quickly ran out of space so started filling up any of the other available flat surfaces.




    I am pretty certain Mrs. R thought I’d lost the plot when she saw my excitement when the BNIB Sindy Roadster arrived. Can’t really argue with that but there aren’t exactly lot of 1/10 scale models, right?

    welcome to miata hoarding 101.
    You have certainly been a great enabler Randy, thanks I wish I could see the AWD cluster with the thick rings but only see my second NB AWD cluster, my original NA AWD cluster and the cluster I bought to win the AWD gauges. Definitely too much stock piling but now starting to get on top of organizing the garage.



    And the inner covers that go with the black faces. Since I'll never not run the custom RevLimiter gauges in Benny I should probably think about cleaning that set up and letting it go.


    Also realized I have far too many sets of hardtop clamps considering I've put in new stock in the other roadsters.


    And forgot about the 1028 washer fluid bag though I prefer the NoPro relocator for a cleaner swap. So much stuff...

    The vast majority of “collectibles” are Mazda with a few things from when I was working with Ferrari, Porsche, Lamborghini, et al . The only non Miata thing I’d picked up was this set of 60th anniversary commemorative dishes modelled after the GTR tail lights. Fwdtamiya had a set from the 50th anniversary and I always thought that was one of the best automotive tributes I’ve seen from Japan


    My magazine collection with HyperRevs and RCOJ member newletters, Roadster bros, etc would be housed and accessible in a set of bankers cabinets with my favorite momentos in the top

    Thanks Harry! You know, that 2-tone panel is the same as the one I already have installed in my coupe so will let you know when I'm ready to pass it on. Since I'm so much later to the NB game you may indeed have some things I *need* too ;).

    and since I still don't have any car updates (blaming the collarbone and the procrastination [or fear?] around trying to track down that dreaded coolant leak) I might as well finish off the garage update with an update on the stickers. Sticker collections aren't unusual but I thought I'd share some of the lot that's been growing this whole time.

    The Friends parody Nam made to tease the crew of the ill-fated renaming of MRLS before it reverted to Miata Reunion


    Andi’s characature’s


    Some of the collection of stickers Adam made from the first MRNet post that made me laugh out loud uncontrollably at some time after midnight (as I was reminded the next morning)


    KINOD



    MazdaRoadster, JCCS, Chikara, ProjectG, Retromodern, GarageStar, FM, et al











    And Joe and Alex


    Kinda feels like I need a better way to display all these
