Eric, a free marketing lesson..... I "could" request pictures but why should I take the time when you're the one trying to sell the car, you should post pics. Without pictures showing the engine and conversion work including a few shots underneath this post is pretty much worthless.

Any interest in swapping for a 2002 35th anniversary Camaro SS?
It has all the options, 6 speed, SLP package with 48,000 miles and LOTS of upgrades and performance parts.

This poor car just keeps coming up for sale. I think it actually started as an actual monster motorsports monster Miata. The bodywork is actually quite rare.

Good luck on your sale,
-Jason

Jason, that what I remember as well. Also as I recall the car was new when it was converted with all new drivetrain and is still a relativity low mile car. If my memory is in error I'm betting someone speaks up.

I think the last time it was listed the price was north of 20K, seemed to me like a bargain back then.

The main problem may be the year of the car. A 1996 is a OBD2 chassis which means it can only be legally owned and inspected in a state that does not do OBD2 testing.

Yes it is a Monster Motorsports Miata.

Car does not have any issues either. RUNS STRONG.

I guess there is an *** for every seat. Car is pretty low mileage. I believe the motor has around 30,000 on it. I may have the title from the donor car as well (have to look around)

Hey Eric I'll toss in a 96 Miata along with my Camaro to sweeten the swap deal.

Any interest in swapping your car for both the above cars? It would have to wait till mid April but I am serious about a trade. The Camaro is easily worth $12,000 and the Miata probably $1500 or so and if it takes a few bucks to close the deal we can work that out.
