Hey guys,
Starting to get set-up to build my next project. Lotus Seven copy AKA a Locost. Final result is something like this

Not really pro-touring but it will have a light-weight radio and heater which are a luxury for one of these. Does that count? :D .

Anyhow, looking into using Miata uprights,hubs and brakes on the front of this thing and was wondering if someone here had some experience on them? Would like to know what years are different, and what ones are "best" in terms of weight, brakes and upright geometry. Someone here must have raced around in a miata for a while?
Thanks guys.
