1991 Mazda Miata

Friends help you move; Great friends help you move dead bodies; F’ing amazing friends help you move dead Miatae! Picked up this little ‘91 w/ 151k miles from the original owner for $500. She needed it gone quickly because she had sold her house and the new owners would be moving in soon. It was parked for three years in the dampness of Boulder Creek, CA, with a “clutch or tranny issue.” Interior is mildewed to hell (note interior moisture in pic), paint is peeling, but over all the body is in great shape w/ a little surface rust that should buff right out (really!). Bonus: they’d swapped the ragtop for a ‘99/‘00 glass window top a few years ago and it’s in great shape.
