Hello factory 5 forum!

I am a proud new owner of an 818S that was picked up in Boston on January 17th 2015 and driven back to Atlanta Georgia where the build will take place.

I am excited to keep a chronicle here on the 818 forums of my progress.

I have been a long time lurker of the forums but I decided to finally start my build thread.

I labeled my thread as an "amateur" build because I am not as skilled as the average members on this forum.
As the other build threads have shown me, there is an abundance of great mechanical, engineering, and fabrication skills that I do not possess.

I have worked on cars since I was a teenager as a hobby , but I have never built a car from the frame up. But I am willing to give it a try.

I'm excited to start! Thanks for your patience in advance for any questions that I have.

Mike
