Thanks for the welcome guys. My plan for the roadster are frame off, Miata drivetrain, and lower. I do paint and body so if you guys have any questions about that, hit me up.

I'm back and forth between 2009 Ferrari Monza Red and the Maserati Bordeaux Pontevecchio. Both are dark reds with a pile of pearl but i kinda like Monza Red so that's what I'm leaning towards.
