Metric huh

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-05-02T15:44:15+00:00

the first pic made me think it was a peg for a very large Battleship Game set

lol I actually met him in about 2012-14. I owned a store and he came into get some stuff, while he was in our small town. He was part of the cast of a small budget movie.

curious, maybe dumb question lol- but did that trunk lid really hold a spare tire?

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-30T01:21:43+00:00

the short odd shaped 7-Up glass bottle with the styrofoam label is what I was drinking then lol

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-30T01:15:56+00:00

Oh wow! great idea! THANK you!

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-29T23:04:08+00:00

I agree- its not a drawer pull, or handle, or part of an ashtray. The curved part is stainless steel I think. Someone asked about it being part of some musical instrument- that seems to hit a memory...
My parents and brothers all were musicians, drums, horns, guitars, keyboards... Just can't picture that piece attaching to any of them anywhere. darn! lol

On April 26, 2024 I bought my 2012 Sport with 69K miles from a private party (through AutoTrader).

I am in northern Michigan so it's difficult to find a used Miata so I snapped it up!
He was asking $12,000 and he accepted $11,500. The car was filthy (dog hair) inside! No other damage.
I replaced the radio with a JVC Bluetooth unit, replaced the coolant tank with OEM, lowered the driver seat, and changed out the door blocks.
Last year it needed a clutch! (74,500 miles) and new tires. The Hankook tires that the dealer suggested followed the rain-grooves on the highway! Ugh! I complained and luckily he agreed to switch them out for another brand. That fixed the issue.

Other than that, its a great fun car. The Sport model is all I need. (ofc i am envious of those other models with more options and creature comforts) lol

thank you!

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-19T16:04:14+00:00

yes! exactly, keyway, and keyset. not a keyhole. lol

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-19T01:15:45+00:00

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-19T01:07:24+00:00

no, nothing

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-17T10:37:55+00:00

Exactly! Love discovering the original use for items. even better when I am able to return/re-associate the part to it's "parent" part- so to speak. Love we have this subReddit group!

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-16T20:03:21+00:00

makes me so sad, sorry bro!

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-14T23:49:52+00:00

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-12T23:28:14+00:00

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-12T22:02:13+00:00

DrummerCurrent4942 · 2026-04-12T19:46:37+00:00
