I'm restoring a '63(frame off) does anyone know where i can find a diagram of how the cab to frame mount kit all goes together. It's been a while since I took the cab off and don't remember how all the bushings and bolts go. Thanks, Alan

I can scan the diagram that I got with my kit.
It would be tomorrow though, because it's at the shop.

I haven't got anything done to the trucks for awhile. I 've been working on a Miata. I'm almost done with it. I need something that is better on gas. Maybe I can get back on the trucks soon.

Nice job on the Mazda. I would love to get my hands on a 55 that nice then drop it with some bigger rims and engine swap and drive it. Leave the body just like it is. Also looks to be a great start on the 65. I am headed out today to pick up a 63 SWB GMC that I picked up last week for a steel so I will be watching your build from time to time. Keep it up. Also you seem alot like me! I have 6 project vhehicals right now in different stages, a 1140sq shop that is getting a second floor added this summer, a 1880's hose that I am rebuilding, 4 1/2 month old son and I am still bringing home more projects! My wife must be a saint is all I can say.

I've got a dilemma. I've got to many projects and there is no room in the shop. I'm thinking about selling my whole 65 project or part it out. It would free up alot of space. I haven't worked on the 65 since my last post. At this rate it will take 20+ years to complete. Don't ask me why but I got hooked on the miata. I've got 3 1/2 of them now and might get another in a couple of weeks. I want to build a turbo miata and a monster miata with a V8. Have I completely lost my mind?

So you are giving up on the 65 ?? Looks like you were making great progress on it.

We had a couple of LS powered Miata's here in town....They were mostly used for the competition 'drifting'. The local speed shop is curently building another one, with an LS7 I believe.

I would keep them all...and plan your work schedule so you can work on each one a little.

It's up to you man....So what Miata forum you on ??

Hey Rogue 64, where's the Killboy.com pix taken? The only place that I've seen his crew is on the Dragon.

I don't get on miata.net much. It's been a few months. I spend most of my computer time here.

Nice pix

Alan's Classic · 08-31-2008, 11:19 PM

Hey!! I did somethings done today. I got my front fenders and core support test fitted today. Everything bolted right up. I'm very pleased with how everything fits.

Rogue 64 · 08-31-2008, 11:28 PM

That was on the "Dragon" in '05.
This pic made the cover of Killboy in '05.

Here is my 93LE this year at Deals Gap.
