Well... I think that’s official a depression... black AMG’s to a miata??? It’s over!

I feel like I’m going to be pouring way too much money into this car. Went through it this weekend and it’s in really good shape since it never saw winter, and always garaged. Not many unmolested NA Miatas around these days, especially since this is a relatively rare Canada only SE model (the North American LE had the god awful red interior) so that’s the plan, clean it up. All the door dings, repaint it, wrap the whole car and call it a day. Gotta start hunting for stock 14” wheels with the right center caps. The interior and top is pristine, 2 small nicks with the leather, going to see if I can find a place to repair it.

Mazda has a restoration parts program, looks to be US only. Have to see if Canadian dealers can get the parts. Could use a new ashtray. Oddly enough it’s the only interior piece that’s aged poorly.

My mum has an original beetle, thought about putting it in for her as I bet it is the same size.

I didn’t think THAT hard about it.

I bought a FM Bluetooth transmitter. That’ll have to do. Like I said, going to restore her to OEM. Might get a set of wheels for it, that’s the extent of the mods.

Why not wrap it first and then get it painted shortly before you sell it? It seems counter productive to cover the freshest, shiniest paint, non?

You wrap fresh new paint so it stays flawless forever. My HPF M3 was repainted and wrapped 12 years ago. I saw the car on Friday and it looks brand new.

Maybe you’re confused when I say wrap, I’m talking paint protection film not vinyl wrap.

I have a set of daisies with center caps if that’s what you’re looking for

What does a miter or table saw blade cost to sharpen?

My 80 to 100 tooth ones are under $30 each, they charge based upon blade size and also number of teeth. A freshly sharpened blade is a great thing, less dangerous too. Bonus is that you can usually get 7-8 sharpens out of a blade - a lot cheaper than just replacing good blades.

My last time was $56.50 including GST for an 80 tooth 10" and a 100 tooth 12" - those 2 blades new are over $350

Yes, I thought you meant vinyl. I call that "wrap" and I call 3M/Suntek "film".

But if I say I’m going to film the car that’s even more confusing.
