An American ,Keith Tanner has written a complete book called:How to build a cheap sportscar(,Motorbooks workshop) based on Ron Champions Locost 7.The book is about fitting and the complete build of an MX 5 based MX5/Miata.I own the book,a good book generally but quite a bit of "rough" workmanship in it,more of a book on how to assemble from bought in parts as opposed to Rons concept off do it yourself,and learn something and do it cheap,but you would not be dissapointed in the book if you wish to use an MX5 which would be a very good choice of donor.David
