Car for sale question

[Sharpie]

Does anybody recognize this car? Know the owner?

A friend from Albuquerque is curious about it. No, not my dad, he has enough.

Thanks.

I sure don't, but I would like to see a $9000 head.

[Sharpie]

I think he's saying the whole built engine was $9000.

[SirHustlerEsq]

Nope, adn that car is not worth $10k.

^ What do you think a fair price would be?

[altiain]

Is it just me, or is the front bumper fit off in one of those pics? Looks like the fit is off on the driver's side.

[Mr. Miatie]

$6500.50

In order to really get a good picture of the worth, you would have to put ass to seat. Drive it and put a finger in every crack and cranny. Check the oil and water, look everywhere for rust and or problems.

Then give the guy $6500.00

Sure a lot of stuff to put on a set of KYB AGX.

The guy that originally owned and built that car was a gentleman in his 50's by the name of Mike Fuller. He had TDR install a roll bar and door bars and I specifically remember it. Car made some huge HP #'s.

$7000-8000. He has some expensive stuff like the engine and the computer, but it can be replicated for significantly less than he's asking. <$3500 for the engine from DCE (with the right compression ratio), $900 for the computer (MS3), OEM Miata like that is not worth $8000, but one in this trim is. $10k is probably his started price, I'd be tempted to buy it for $8k if I had the scratch.

Thanks Wags!
