Here is a before pic of my 99...........note the receiver hitch imprint on the bumper cover right above the fog light. The only reason this was totalled by the insurance co was because the ground wires under the headlight were cut............the cost of the engine room harness and labor pushed the repair over the threshold so it was totalled, it had no frame or suspension damage, the air bags were not blown.
Drive the Datsun and then my 99 and you will know why I sold it..........
It was allright in 1975. Things move on, it was time for it to go.
After I bought the car from the insurance company I researched the VIN and found the owner, called him up and had a chat.........he was coming home from work (rush hour), it was raining, tires were fairly worn, stop and go traffic, Suburban stopped and he almost got this Miata stopped before he slid into the back of the SUV (no ABS on the Miata). I drove the car over to his house one Saturday after I repaired it so he could see it and he was like WOW, it looks like the day I bought it. He had a electric hardtop hoist I bought from him and now my hardtop is hanging from my garage ceiling via said hoist, the ultimate in a lazy guys hardtop removal..............
