I would like to thank willimo for the inspiration and motivation during the build. It took a long time and some effort, but it is finally finished!

This is really a great built! The back glass isn't the original, is it? it looks like 1 from the RX7. The rear lights are so clean. how you painted them ?

Wow! That looks great!! The FD glass fits perfectly on there. That's a very cool car - I'm ready to go out and buy one tomorrow so I can race it at the next autocross. Know where I can get one? Great work! The paint is to die for, too. Just fantastic work on this one.

Thank you very much, guys!
Joeham, the rims were simply de-chromed and painted with titanim gold (X32, I think) :) Nothing special about it, but I guess they came out pretty nice.
willimo, thanks! If it wasn't for you, I think it would have been a box stock build. Thanks again! :)

Great work Pedro! :thumbsup: Love the asymmetric stripe. Must be a club racer with the white squares waiting for numbers!

Thanks, Phil.
That was exactly my goal: club racer :) I was going to use round decals, but I thought square ones would be more apropriate to a local club.

Very sharp weekend racer.
A miata coupe would be very cool, nicely done.

Great hard-top conversion. The color and stripes fit nicely with the titanium wheels.
Great job!
