Retro themed 97 Montego Blue Roadster

[roadster2]

Hi All,

I've lurked on the forums here the past few months and I've been inspired to document my own build after seeing some incredible builds on here and on Instagram.

It’s been just over 5 years of ownership although it’s only in the past year that I’ve really dug into modifying my mx5 or miata as you lot like to call it (I’m from Australia by the way)! Aim is to finish off the exterior this year so I can get started on the interior which does need a fair amount of work. I do have some big exciting changes coming to the car in the next few months so I’m looking forward to sharing them but for now, I’ll keep this first post short. Here’s a list of what’s been done to date;
