Strange Bedfellows: Miata-Powered 1959 Borgward Isabella
<http://bringatrailer.com/2012/02/13/strange-bedfellows-miata-powered-1959-b
orgward-isabella/> 


This 1959 Borgward Isabella coupe is described as a fun driver by the
seller, who replaced its engine and transmission with Mazda Miata units for
better performance and easier maintenance. The styling of these German cars
has both fans and detractors, but there's no argument that they were well
built and are rare today in the U.S. This is one of the more odd swaps we
have ever seen, but the factory engine is said to also be included. Find it
here on eBay  <http://bringatrailer.com/recommends/here_on_eBay_/28983/1> in
Clarksville, Maryland with a starting bid of $11,500 and no reserve.
