Hoodedreeper's MX5 (Purple Project)
Discussion
I've taken deposits for about 90% of the parts so I'm afraid the whole car isn't available whole.
The buyer interested in the shell is a friend of mine whos been building MX5 based drift cars and misses his previous car (1JZ powered MK1) So i'm sure it'd be turned into another one of those

The time had come to start stripping the car, it went extremely smoothly and we ended up doing it all in 2 days.
My friend Matt purchased the shell, he has previously built 2x drift MX5s both 1JZ powered,S14 rear subframe,skyline diff etc etc. He's been wanting a car that had history and this was the perfect car.
The car will be staying the same Honda Amethyst Purple and will still have a BGW! This was awesome to hear
Here's a couple of photos of his first build which he'll be using as a carbon copy for the new build
So i guess thats the end of an era, MX5 ownership over the past 7 years has taught me alot whether its mechanical side of things or choosing modifications. I've met some amazing people cos of this little car, and I've been lucky to call some friends. I can't thank every single person enough who has read/viewed/liked/commented on the build threads.
Thank you all again
