Re: wishbone lengths. The rear of the chassis could be altered to use the MX-5 location dimentions so from the geometry point of view that would work but I don't think you'll be able to use the actual MX-5 'bones.
The front is totally different and the 'bones, which are on show, both look awful and won't comply with radiused edges etc.
Re: single donor. For those wanting an age related plate then you'd probably need to use as much as you can from the donor to amass enough points to get the age related plate, also the benefit in my view is in using what you have by the way of hubs, brakes and wheels, all of which came with the donor.
RE: MX-5 version of the bible. Is it worth contacting CG himself? two heads better than one and all that.

As I'm still working through the haynes manual for "building a large workshop for you kit" I will probably buy the MX-5 version when it comes out.
