    My Intro (finally)

    Hi All:

    After lurking on this Forum and others for the past 6+ yrs., I am finally getting around to the intro. Located
    on the LEFT COAST, way down south. Took delivery of my MKIV, complete kit, on 12/23/12. You can guess what
    I was doing over the Christmas Holiday. Currently in go-cart stage. (I know-NO VID-NO HAPPEN) trust me. Still
    use an old flip phone. Body going to the bat-cave very soon. I have to get my 10-20 postings so I can get back
    to looking at other build sites and spending more $$$$. My budget is already in the RED, so what's a little more $.
    Thanks to all for passing on your knowledge and suggestions to all of building these FFR cars.

    Mack

    6 years of lurking? Shy?

    It's actually pretty good if you can build a roadster without asking any questions, and your almost ready for paint. Just goes to show this forum is another reason people buy Factory Five roadsters.

    David, thanks for the full access. I was not expecting that. Thank-you!! As for the pic's, I have to read-up on how-to and start posting.

    Bill, ya, 6 yrs. is a long time. Interuped for 24 months. As for the paint job, selecting the color has to be the most difficult part of the build. So far Lexus Indigo Blue is at the top of the list followed by Audi Red.

    Hi Mack,

    It "might" not take 6 years to do my formal intro, but might take me that long to do inventory after taking delivery last week. Actually, a few boxes a day after work should complete the inventory by next week. Already receiving back order stuff, like magic - it just arrives at my door! Congrats on the intro and getting closer to paint. I'd like to see (since I'm only a few towns north) or know about the fitting process etc when ready for paint.
