I think I need a muscle car to round out my collection. Ha.

Just in time manufacturing comes to #Christmas !

Not exactly an ITB intake manifold for the #4AGE in the #Toyota #MR2 but you have to start somewhere. Ha!

Today's crazy #restomod idea: 3d print a body kit for an NA #Miata that looks like an original #Mazda Cosmo. There are similarities in proportion I think, hard top shapes.

Friends!

An informal poll! Everyone likes polls, right?

I try to stay purely automotive focused on this #Mastodon instance. See my bio for a link to my computer nerdy half.

I'm hoping to start a garage reno/expansion this coming spring.

Is there interest in sharing that here? Or should I "keep with the programme" and only talk car stuff here?

Weee! This #mastodon server filled up it's disk and I had to add more storage to the #linode

Will be really happy when my ISP gets the fiber installed in our little village and I can repatriate all my cloud stuff home.

It's coming - they are running the fiber along the poles but who knows how much longer it's going to take - it's been all summer in fits and spurts.

Anyone know #Austin #Healey #bugeye / #frogeye #Sprites or #MG #Midget cars?

Got this old #Suzuki drivetrain that I've always thought could be a good start for a #restomod project (1.6 liter, 4v sohc + J1 #Vitara / #Tracker / #Sidekick / #Escudo 2wd 5sp). IIRC ~100hp/tq

Which years / era of these cars were the most suspension performant and had the best creature comforts? I like both style front ends; late Sprite/Midget might be more #motorsport looking?
