My pal Richard had a Eunos MX5 Series 1 that he used for hill climbs, auto solos and track days.................,
A very proficient mechanic he said the worst job was replacing the rusted and leaking fuel tank, as all the rear suspension has to come off. But it does make cutting out the rest strut top rust easier.

I was out with him when he ran the big ends on the two rear cylinders.... what a wonderful old fashioned noise! It needed a reground crank.
The car had a big sticker on the boot "No Hairdressing Equipment Carried"...
