This is my pride and joy "Scarlett." I bought her in May of this year. A 1990 (built September 89) I am the 3rd owner. She had 146000 Km on her at purchase. She came with a matching hard top and 4 barely used snow tires on rims.
This picture was taken in late June at the base of the Mt. Tremblant ski resort north of Montreal. A nice day to take her out for some twisty mountain roads.
My first adventure with this car was to pack it up (top, tires and all, three on the passenger seat, one in the trunk) and drive it 3600 Km from Calgary (where I bought it) to Montreal where I live. 3 days alone on the road with the car I've always wanted. Fun times.

These are some pictures of the dent that someone left in the side of my car for me. After posting this in search of advice I've decided to go on a hunt for a used fender in a scrap yard. Seems like the best option. If you know of a scrap yard in the Montreal area that tends to have miata parts in stock please let me know. quadtwist@hotmail.com. I'll post pics as I go through the repair process.
My brand new dent, how kind for someone to leave me this early christmas present
They really did a
"bang up" job!!
Ahh, bless the parking lot at work. See the snow tires in the back? They went on right after these pictures. It was about 5 degrees C. that day. Brrrr.
This is the part that concerns me most, chipped paint and some exposed metal. Winter is comming and so is the salt. What to do? Suggestions?

This is a crimp about four inches behind the main dent. Another paint chip. Besides these two spots the paint has survived not too badly.
