    Nugget-The '94 Miata

    Well I bet you are wondering why the hell I named my car Nugget. Well, my sister drives a Lava Orange Mazdaspeed which she named Cheeze-It, so I figured I needed to name my car after a food to keep with the trend. Well a friend of mine saw my car and said "aww look at the little nugget" and I knew that is what I wanted to name it. Anyway on to the car.

    I was looking for a nice NA for a first car and came across a nice red one in Clearwater, FL. Well I fell in love with it, but I never actually drove the car because I didn't know how to drive a stick!
    This is how the car looked when i first got it.


    Then for Christmas my sister gave me some Racing Beat springs to lower the car a bit. She bought them 3 months before I even got the car!

    Then I brought it home, drove it for a month, if even that, and I decided to go to a Mustang car show in Florida on the way back home from the show the car decided it wanted to leave me stranded!

    The first mods I bought (center console, shift boot, and headunit)


    After saving up some money I picked up a set of Chaparral's from RSpeed


    Next on the list was to get rid of the awful torn up, faded, and yellow rear windowed soft top. I was so embarrassed about it that I don't even have any pictures of it, so I got a new glass windowed top! The top I bought was pretty dirty, but underneath all of the dirt was a nice top I just had to find it, so the cleaning began!
    Picked up a bottle of this:
