$600

TRD manifold for a blue top large port 4ag. Weber 40mm DCOE side draft carbs. From what I've read webers are more reliable, easier to get parts for, and easier to tune than Solex, or Solex Mikuni's, do some research and you'll know what I'm talking about. These will probably need a rebuild, but honestly I have no idea, I've never messed with carbs. Includes everything pictured, horns, throttle linkage, the random rubber hose.

Wow, that frame is missing a lot of crucial cross bracing...

1993 Mazda Miata convert. Needs a new battery but will run fine with a jump. It has a newer top with a glass window. It's a manual with 112,000 miles. It has a little rust on the bottom of the body but not too bad. Good car to fix up or restore to make perfect.

It's near/in chicago. No affiation.

Looks like that might be a steal if the engine runs well.

This isn't much of a deal, but the seller "race_basics" is selling Wilwood brake components for the Summit list price and free shipping. They're pretty cool to work with.

http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Race-Basics__W0QQ_armrsZ1

I picked up the clutch and brake pedal assemblies as well as a master for my clutch. Saved me an hour drive (each way) to Summit and 7% sales tax.

There seems to be a pretty hard price floor for these components in my area. This is the best deal I've seen recently.

1977 Lotus Elite in Springfield MO
$1000.
Might be worth using as a donor and trying to sell the other "bits" off of it to recoupe some money. What would be cooler then driving a locost with a real lotus drivetrain?

I wish I live closer to it.

Someone in the UK has full sets of Gaz shocks and springs for a pretty reasonable price for what you're getting. Looks like he'll ship to the US.

Is there an adjustability issue with the bushed ends on those shocks rather than rod ends?
