I LOVE the Locost idea - buying a beater Miata and making an open-wheeled Lotus 7 replica out of it - but I wonder if such a car is still registerable/insurable in the U.S.? Would such a thing even be street legal? If so, is it registered as a Miata?
In any case, I will be buying the books suggested on those websites. Who knows, maybe this will be my next project after the 951 gets a new clutch...
