actually that's not a bad car to start with... looks all there.
I would say BRG but without the stripe, tan top/interior.. just me though..
Probably going to try to get 15" wheels and tires under it, paint and some engine mods for sure....Maybe update the interior abit, Miata seats, CD, and I am thinking of different door panels...Teak or mahogany dash insert....Thought about going crazy with some engine turned aluminum door panels and dash insert....Not sure, I will keep everyone updated thoughJustLooking;870952; said:

id go with a Straight six, if this is the car im thinking of, theres plenty of room up front.
also, what color are you thinking? original? i think it would look good Cherry red, or bass boat blue (glitter) with a white circle and the #1 on the door...haha.
I picked the car up down the road from me (Fresno)....I am going to leave the stock motor just do some mods....Guy in my town races exact same car gonna get some performance parts from him(head, headers,front brakes, rotors) I am not sure of color, I like BRG and I like Red also....This would only be the second resotration of sorts on a car that I have done first was my 70 squareback.....Anyhow the car is all there, needs new vinyl top....Couple of small dings around the fender well, front right-rear left...Will definitely put weber carb instead of stock.....
