NMNA - - $1500.

Just like my first car that I paid $70 for.  Sold it to a guy from school, he dropped in a 283, traction bars and '59 Cadillac fins out back.  The Baby Bat.

You are making it painful that I have 1/2 of this equation in my garage and you have now presented the other half.

Probably more than $2k, but why not slip that sheet metal over a Legend car?

I've got my ex-Challenge supercharged Miata and I've watched the entire Urchfab build series videos on that car. It would be a nice little hot rod.

Legend chassis would be too small. It would need to be lengthened at least, maybe widened ,too. The Urchfab Anglia is sitting on an NB Miata chassis.

Dont do and engine swap and dont mess with the Miata wheelbase and this is not that hard to do.

Urchfab didn't mess with the Wheelbase/firewall location at all.  He was able to merge the firewalls with some custom work at the top but he made it look pretty straight forward (I realize that is more a reflection of his skill then a statement of the ease of the task but I've done hard things before and all things considered this one seems very doable)

This is part of why the lift has been purchased.   I can double the number of project on deck If the cars are literally up on the shelf.   This will likely mean the Miata sticks around until I complete some things.
