Testing 91 Miata with 99 swap
I have a 91 Miata with unknown miles on it as the speedo was not working when I got it. Testing the waters to see whats its worth. It was originally an auto car. It has the complete drivetrain out of a 99 swapped in it that I did myself. The 99 got an LFX swap. This car has the NB engine, trans, rear end, and brakes.
Pros
Ex-intake cam swap
Stainless header
Proportioning valve
Fresh Centric Rotors with EBC yellow stuff all the way around
Stainless Steel brake hoses.
Updated master cylinder with larger bore and bigger booster.
Foamectomy on drives seat
NRG short hub and quick release
Momo Steering wheel
Proper Depowered rack with urethane bushings
Bridgestone RE71r 205/50/15
Konig Dial in 15x8
Budget Bilstein Coilovers
Magnaflow Catback
Generic high flow cat with flex pipe welded in.
Hood hydraulic strut. No prop rod.
As far as I can tell no body rust.
Updated to JK headlights. Sure beats sealed beam.
Interior is in good shape. No rips or tears in the seats.
Suzuki Cappuccino washer bottle
GV Rep lip not installed. minor imperfections.
During the Swap.
Fresh wash and wax
Cons
Needs a new top. I have two frames to choose from.
Rear filler panel is cracked
Could use some extended rear top hats.
AC not installed but have everything to reinstall it.
I have no clue what a good price for this would be. The pics I have are from before the coilovers and the alignment. It has an aggressive alignment setup for street/autox now. Please let me know what you guys think is a reasonable price. I am not in a rush to sell but I have just lost interest. Will not part out. Thanks

The sawzall was to make a little clearance for the header. I made a small cut and pounded the lip down with the hammer.
As for a price I was thinking $4500 but I could be way off. All the ones on craigslist around me are priced crazy high for a decent one.
Also forgot to add that it has a new alternator and you can see the coolant reroute.
