Default $1500 Miata

Blue 90 Miata. Needs some TLC. big problem is a small hole in the diff case - can't be driven as is. the car runs pretty well - accelerates strong. has a pretty good dent in the driver door and some small dings across the hood.

How much do you estimate it would cost to get it driveable? How many miles? How are the tires? Those are 5-speeds right?

Got any more info?

Thanks.

depends on how you define driveable. JB weld might hold on the diff case for a little while. Used diffs are available for around $200-$250. It needs plugs and wires. With that, it'll be driveable. The top has a tear that would need to be professionally fixed. The rear window for the top costs about $25 to make and install yourself - instructions on miata.net.
Tires are good but it's just got ugly steel wheels. A/C is inop - don't know why, and it's missing a radio.
It is a 5 speed. 130K miles - only middle aged in Miata terms.
Hope that helps

90-93 are 1.6L - the 1.8L started in 94. don't remember the power output but it did increase over the years. Miata.net has all those numbers.
