I've posted these over on the GRM forum readers rides section, but thought maybe some here would appreciate them more in light of Meister Suddard's GT6 project ongoing. Since last I posted here (I think the body had just been put back on) a good deal has been done. Still have alot of bodywork and eventually paint to do, but mechanically it's running well with a newly-rebuilt diff, almost everything electrical working well finally, miata seats in it now, original AM/FM radio, most of the interior back together, etc...

Also have the new superlites on it...14x6, +26 in the back and +12 in the front with perfect arch and suspension clearance everywhere!

To do: dashboard, roll bar, bodywork, chrome, driveshaft balance, electric cooling fan, aluminum radiator, and shave/build the NOS head I've had sitting around the garage for 6 months... Photobucket

How do the Miata seats work? I want to put them in my '69 GT6, but I heard if you're taller than 5' 10" or so you won't fit inside? Did you have to mod them at all?

Very nice, what ratio did you use for the diff, 3.27?
