Model
The car I need to start with is a 1995 Mazda Miata M-Edition as that's where my budget lies.

Engine
I want to use the BluePrint Engine Chevy engine as I think they will be a better choice for me right now.

Comments
I have been in love with the Cobra since 1969 when my dad owned his with a 69 Cougar XR7 428CJ convertible. He loved to drive fast with the top down. We went car shopping and he took me to see my first Cobra at the local MG dealer and I fell in love. As I grew up I knew one day I would have my own. However the more I researched them, the more I knew I needed a replica as they could be made better, faster, stronger, smarter.

As an adult I've had serious auto-immune health issues to the point of needing a liver transplant. That happened in 2000. Now the liver disease is recurring and looks like I'm getting ready for round two of liver transplants. My health prevents me from purchasing and building what I want, so since I already have the Miata, I will have to make do with a Monster Miata, until such time as I can swap the BluePrint Engines Chevy drivetrain into my Factory Five 289 USRRC Replica.

Thankyou for being so generous and offering up one of your engines.
