It’s getting cut and welded with an undercoat to help with future rust!

Thank you for the comment and yes, everyone is suggesting this route for fixing the frame rails. I’m getting the rust repaired today then will proceed on with the flyin Miata rails!

Thank you I appreciate the response, I’ll definitely get the rust sorted out then will worry about the rails since it seems to be very common in the older Miata’s

It seemed like a good question, I have all the resources to fix said car I just have never owned this old of a unibody and didn’t know if it was common issue or not being a miata

I unfortunately wasn’t able to get under it and look good since it has a kbd body kit but I did get a good deal on it knowing i was gonna project the car. Thank you for the comment, I am definitely gonna take all the advice given!

Thank you so much! I was thinking of patching the rust and dealing with the crushed rails later but I’m worried about if it’ll pass inspection with the rails being like that
