I think the person who did the body work really wanted a Miata.

Agree Shaun,

This sort of thing is both very annoying and upsetting.

How much extra weight do you suppose all of that adds? It looks very heavy to me.

Another TR7 wasted.Still can't see why anyone would modify the shape of a TR7, whether it be the Grinnall styling, TR40, Viper, Rimmer kits etc.All IMO ruin the original lines of the car and take away what the TR7 is all about.

The only one that looks good is the Group 44 FHC.

But I respect the courage and the enthusiastic and the many hours
