My Junkyard Miata Build 1 Year Later

This is a time-lapse transformation video of building a supercharged Mazda Miata from an abandoned wrecked car found in a tow yard to a corner attacking track car.

Please enjoy this video of me building a supercharged widebody Miata in 15 minutes!

A little over a year ago I purchased a Miata I found abandoned in a tow yard for $900. It was in rough shape mechanically and had crash damage that was not fixed. I am not a skilled mechanic and a complete beginner when it comes to working on and modifying cars. However, through grit and determination I learned how to transform this wrecked car into something that I can push to the limit on the race track. Taking on such a project to me, was very intimidating but through the experience I have learned a lot and it was thrilling to see how far it has come. There is still much to do in the future.

Car looks great good job! Only thing missing was the sound of the car haha

[bakerXderek]

Such an amazing job man, literally gave that car a whole new life

[uelivitton]

15 minutes are really short to rebuild a car. Very impressive!

[daviduprichard]

My man had the crocs on for the reveal, respect 👊✌

[_Yep_Yep_]

Uplifting to see guys who keep everyone else's cars going get the opportunity to work on their own cool projects and get to flex their car guy muscles. Old Miatas are pretty special for being easy to get and sorta cheep and...great fun. Seeing one get saved, then have a lot of really thoughtful changes put into it to music that was like a nujabes tape was therapeutic. Thanks guys, great job.

As a soon to be Miata owner, current mechanic and previously bodywork specialist, I give you a 10 out of 10 man, your work to this car was just outstanding and I can't wait to look at more of your work.

[private]

wow, this guy really works fast, I had my first project car and I finished it in 9 months, and this guy in 15 minutes.

[MichaelStroup]

This car is literally perfect and almost exact what i wanted to do with one. Showed me it wasn't crazy. I hope to do a build someday half as amazing as this.

[TheMikemg]

As soon as the shine came out on the paint job, I realized that miata was gonna be real sick. Great job man!

[BigMac_]

Sheeeesh bro's got the racing crocs

[BeatLegato]

Hell yeah, Harry! Loved the whole 15 minutes. 4 months ago I decided to do the same thing with my civic which hasn't ran for 6 years. Said fuck it and decided to rebuild. Only difference is I have friends doing it for me since I'm in Seattle.

Maybe we cruise when I'm back in town and the car is finished!

[PARACHOQUEDECLIO]

That miata sure is happy now, look how it smiles. Nice job

[thealternativefactor]

This is top notch. No greater feeling than making a car in your own image. That wheel and tire combination is unreal. Great job guys. I salute you....

[Dodudke]

I happy to see that miata happy again after get abandoned 🥰🥰👍

[celicasang]

This is a great build video I love how you actually covered all the things you did even the little ones like a shifter boot 👏👏🔥🔥

[co.q]

The first time i saw this video i kept avoiding it because it looked like a hotwheel and after months and months i finally gave in and watched it and all i can say is thats amazing

[dans.chicken]

Loved the vid. That’s such a clean car build. Nice to see a Miat that hasn’t been murdered with camber or stanced to the point it looks stupid :)

[LeaTheGirlkisser]

"Beginner" *Has a whole ass workshop in his garage*

[Wheagg]

I find some of the bodywork questionable but I like the emphasis on safety and I like that you supercharged the OG engine, Miata gets so many swaps.

[JamieBainbridge]

This is just epic. Especially the Rustoleum rattle can paint job, it came out so good! Now I've gotta go watch all the build videos.
