my 10p on the subject is that the value put on remaining sierra cars and parts are increasing that combined with most of the kit industry already using sierra bits has started to exhaust supplies.
that said there are still quiet a few bits and cars still kicking about and meny of us still have sierra bits needed squrilled away (i have all of the main parts to build another car) where as mx5's are still in plentyfull supply at the moment but for how long?
the std design only really needs a few sierra parts and im sure some of thease could be easily switched for a diffrent part of the same style.
the problem is if you use a diffrent donor car you realy need to take into account things like the change of ackerman angle. i take it this is why the the orignal kept the sierras wheelbase and track.
with so meny cars now fwd the sylva riot way of doing it seems a more logical route
