If it is Port Clinton, OH then I am just one town over. I own a Miata and would be happy to look at it.
Port Clinton, OH would have a 419 area code

330 would be Akron/Canton (south of Cleveland). A bit too far for me, sorry.

Kent is South Metro Cleveland near Akron.
The is a college there in Kent. Many years ago 4 students were shot there.
It is about 2 hrs away from me and likely not in the cards this week since i will be in Phoenix, AZ Weds - Saturday.

Is it possible what you thought was Clinton is actually CANTON, Ohio?

If it is Clinton Township near Columbus and the cell phone is just from Kent I would be happy to take a look at it for you. If it is up near Kent I won't have time to get up there (2-3 hours from Columbus)

Ah, Clinton Township is in Columbus, but there is a neighborhood near Canal Fulton called Clinton (again, near Akron/Canton/Kent).

Nice looking car. If you can get the guy to trailer it to Nelsons Ledges, I would gladly test drive it for you.

I would offer to look it over, but I doubt that I could tell you much more then the pictures could. I did have a 99 Miata until recently.
