I am going to keep at it and hope to see you guys in person with the car on the road.
If that is the case then anytime any engine is rebuilt in Mass. reguardless of the original block date. MAC can use the assembly/rebuild date as the assembly date It figures, Mass. is always trying to suck the life outa someone with extra taxes! . You might consider registering in N.H. or ME. via Cobra associates in those states. Mine is a antique w/no need of emission, inspection & total cost less than $80.00 per year As a AC Cobra cost less than $8K in 65/66, that is what you would pay for sales tax! Remember M8 you are now in a group of Cobra addicts & we help each other when ever possible.!
