Where are my enablers?! I need people telling me what fun I'll have with this cheap wreck!

JUST LOOK AT THAT GREAT PATINA!

(In case it's not obvious, the want is strong for this one.)

Also, I'm not afraid of three-wheels-in-the-junkyard cars that need a bit of reconstructive surgery: eg. the rust repair needed on this year's winter beater Toyota Echo is more involved than the Miata will be.
