JMC,
I would rather not have doors. I'm thinking simplicity in the chassis structure and added strength. I though of running parallel tubes from the front to rear with an X brace where the doors would normally be. I also would like to have it as light as possible. Doors, latches, hinges all add up, and mess up the body lines. I'm hoping that the net weight of the finished car could be 1600 lbs or lighter. (I don't know how thick / heavy the body is). Thanks for the update, looking forward your pics of the stripped Miata.
