'92 for sale in Jasper

https://chattanooga.craigslist.org/cto/d/jasper-1992-mazda-miata-mx-5-turbo-lots/6893618767.html

I bought this car last year as a hobby, but haven't been able to put any time into it and now we're moving across the country so it's got to go. Engine has 251k miles. Doesn't burn any oil. Has been boosted since around 125k at 5psi, so nothing crazy. I currently have all the carpets out of the car, as well as the center arm rest piece, but all of that is included. The canvas top is in excellent condition without any rips or tears. Car has always been stored in the garage.

Comes with LOTs of extras:
A whole file of the life record of the car
2 OEM valve cover gaskets
2 boxes of spare parts
Oil and filters for a couple changes
2 sets of floor mats
Plexiglass piece for driving in the winter with the top down
Workshop manual along with several other Miata reference guides
And more!

The bad:
- needs new driver's door panel and front driver's side fender. The car was backed into while sitting in our driveway last summer. The hit was at an angle which pushed the drivers door back towards the rear of the car, causing a few paint nicks on the jam area and now the door won't close all the way.
- small oil leak. Not sure where it's coming from, just know that there's a little oil under the car in the garage.
- needs a new battery. This one doesn't hold a charge for anything
- After running the car for a while, there's a little smoke that comes from under the hood that smells like burnt rubber. I think the oil leak might be near the exhaust pipe causing this.
- AC needs recharged
- Gas gauge is miscalibrated - 300 miles or when the needle gets to 1/2 tank is when it almost empty
