I think it looks pretty nice. My son and I test drove a Miata a couple of years ago, fun little car. I can see why a lot of people own them. It's like driving an older British sports car but with more comfort and reliability.
Wow, amazing work. I've accumulated some brass and soldering equipment wanting to jump into brass fabrication. Your work is very inspiring. What size tube did you use for the framerails? Also,what type solder do you prefer to use?
I remember my junior year in high school (73) my best friend buying a 66 GTO conv. for $1200. Later that summer I helped him pull a turbo 400 tranny and the Hurst dual gate console out of a wrecked 67 to replace the power glide all for the grand total of.........$200. Junkyards were full of goodies for cheap, those were the days.
His website is great,Jay knows a lot about all different types of cars and off the wall mechanical stuff. I also like when Dennis Gage visits his shop on "My Classic Car"
I bought that kit, found bigger wheels and tires. But have to do some cutting in the front wheel wells otherwise the tires sit too far back. Might just use the kit wheels and tires and do a OOB.
Beautiful work Harry, some of those Aurora ( the Stutz, the Olds and a few others) kits where the first kits I ever worked on. My dad bought them and showed my brother and me how to build models. They ignited my lifelong passion for our hobby.
