Per Craigslist, the ad has expired. Now that it's no longer free & Craigslist charges $5 to post a car ad, some car sellers don't renew their ads immediately, so you might return to the "expired" notice, back it up to the cars-for-sale page & search for V8 MIATA or MONSTER MIATA or whatever you think might reveal what you're looking for. If the seller revised the ad or it's title & re-posted then a new search should turn up the V8 Miatas.

it's long gone from Craiglist but its build photos are still posted on flyinmiata.com at https://www.flyinmiata.com/V8/green99/index.php?UID=45
You might check with Flyin Miata & ask if they know where it is.

Good for you Bryce! I bet you had some fun this summer...how do you like it?
Would you change anything? Any plans for further mods in the future?

I reviewed the FM build thread and from the end of the build and looking at what the PO added to the car, I like his vision.
What a nice combination of features.

Cheers and congrats!

Pat

Thanks Pat. The car is amazing. Flyin Miata did a spectacular job building this car. The only thing I have changed so far is that I put the original Taillights back in. Other than that she’s damn near the same since she was built. I’ve had many, many compliments from other Miata owners and non owners as well. As soon as you start the engine she’s a head turner for sure!!

As far as future changes go, there’s not much I can think of that I would like to do. She does need a new top and I can’t decide wether to go with black or tan. That’s about the biggest decision I need to make lol
