    I'm excited about the next step in the evolution of this car. It's all happening under the hood.
    I highly doubt you'll disappoint him with what you're doing. And judging from what you've done so far, I'm sure your plans for "under the hood" will be nothing short of stellar! I for one am looking forward to seeing this next evolution.

    Steve,

    Beautiful car. Tasteful mods, that work so well together. The vintage stripes tie in so well with the interior color, thumbs up!!! I like the size and color of the wheels, just racy enough, without overpowering the whole package. Keep up the great work!

    -Cheers,

    Jim

    P.S. I think Randy is happy with what has become of his car. Just knowing that someone is treating her right makes you feel good!

    You better watch out for him too. If he sees you making all of these new mods to his old "pride and joy", he'll probably try to buy it back from you! LOL
    Not my car anymore but everything Steve has done is just great , the car needed a fresh set of ideas anyhow, he has taken it further than I would have thought up on my own, and in doing so has even inspired me to build something bigger and better than before.

    And FWIW im quite sure the owner of that S13 probably feels the same about your Miata as you do about his car. Lets face it, your Miata has no miles, and is super clean for an almost 20 year old car. ;p

    "Rooster"



    This character loves to strut his stuff for anyone who will watch. He is exuberant and flamboyant, full of energy and life.
    They have swagger, don't they? After all...the term "cocky" is named after them. My wife and I were talking about my car last weekend and in the course of that conversation my car spoke to us. It became apparent, all of a sudden, that he wanted us to know his name.

    Meet my Roadster, "Rooster".

    Love the new name. Within my group of Miata friends we always refer to Miatas as chickens so the name makes perfect sense to me lol.
