1999 Mazda Miata

The story

I started with a 03 miata as my fitst car and fell in love with them. I was young and reckless with my original build. It was a slammed static daily that went through hell and back. I ended up parting it out after it breaking down for the last time and dreamt of building another since. I went through owning other cars like an is300 and a e46 330i, but nothing gave me the joy I had in a miata. So I picked this up in September of 2025 and decided to build a nice daily driver that was somewhat reasonable to drive around SoCal streets. After about a year of owning it now stands. It started off as a salvage, beat up stock car that some kids started to modify as a fun car to being revived as a nice to what i believe is a great reliable daily with some style. I had to fix a good amount of faulty wiring and suspension issues but now have it dialed to my liking. I painted the car myself because it started off as 4 different colors and proud of how well i did for my first time ever painting a car. To add a bit of sentimental touch to it, i even repaired and installed my bomex bumper that i originally had on my first car. Im happy i get to have something from my first miata on this car and get to relive that joy i had when i was just a 16 year old kid modding his first car. Hope you enjoy my build and maybe use it as a reference or inspiration for your future or current miata. IG: hectorsarinana
