Thanks Jim, I am looking forward to a road trip to Dayton as soon as the weather breaks. Hopefully we can get together, and I'm also planning to stop by the Airforce museum, it's be awhile.
Another note for anybody looking for Miata seats or anyother part, I found a great web site for car parts,
www.car-part.com. You list the year of interest, Make/Model, Part, location, sort by, and your zip. I found a great selection of Miata seats available all over the USA. Not sure at this point if they are really there, but I plan to pick up a pair in my travels within the next year for a next winter project.
Happy Hunting
