My First Roadster

Good Ideas, I hadn't thought of the Miata route.

That or just find a frame. There must be one lying around in someone's garage nearby.
Great Quotes from the Past..."Who would ever need a frame?"

No, it has double a-arms. But it does have a shock tower to deal with.

That screams coil-overs


And yes a stock frame would be the least $$$

Well thanks to Bob from Arkansas (KatyBug92) I brought home a new frame along with some other much needed parts over the weekend. The new frame looks great and it will be really nice to be able to get the rolling chassis perfect, then put the body on. So, now that my chassis problem is solved, I need to make the next big decision: what engine/trans to use?


CoyoteGary: Did you happen to move here from AZ?

Nice! I recognized the name and the Cobra Z. I was stationed at Luke AFB for about 6 years and recently moved to north texas as well. I would love to check out your cars sometime.
