Paid a visit to the Miata ranch today to grab some BBS center caps to complete the car (thanks Scott!) And also grabbed a steering wheel from him. The inside is rusty compared to my old one, but the leather is in much better shape. I also grabbed the rubber bottom price for my Nardi Shifter to cover up the expose metal, but I bought one that was too short.
I also degreased the underside of my car a bit and realized I have a pretty bad leak somewhere, which would explain the oil loss. I think a combination of rear main and valve cover.
More things to add to my list are new motor/trans mounts and possibly those delrin door bushings.
I've also decided I'm going to sell my hardtop (hopefully to Zach) and find a nicer one to start with. Hopefully with a head liner and defrost. That way I can paint it to match the car and not worry about fixing the chip missing on the rear.
