Miata Hunting Part 3

Parusing the good ol’ CL, and I see pictures of a Red roadster, a 94, with 100k miles at what looks to be a salvage yard.  My interest is picqued, as is my skeptiscism. I give the seller a call, chat with him briefly, he says he closes at 5pm, I ask if he’s a business rather than a private seller, he explains it’s at his truck/heavy equipment shop. 
I head right over.
I check the car out a bit, he flips me the keys and tells me to check it out, I comply.  No power steering, cool, crank windows, hmm, were those underbody spoilers I noticed?  This might be an R, I’m not sure.
The car was repainted, but was honestly in killer shape.  The price is a bit over the FMMF, but I may have to make a concession and pull from savings for this one.  The Seller was a car guy to boot, I’d rather keep the money among car folk.

hmmmm.....
