    When you do, let me know.
    My better half posted my albums.
    That's why I do the YOUTUBES instead.

    Congratulations

    It’s a great feeling to do all of the work necessary to build this car and an even better feeling to hear it started and then get to drive it down the street

    congrats good progress!
    If you can build a car you can figure out how to post a picture! Do you still have a VCR, is your clock also flashing 12:00? haha just joking.
    Uploading the pictures to an album on this site and posting them from that works great.

    Sweet. I'm at roughly 1640 days for the first start. Patiently (not really) waiting on the first go-kart.

    Might be time to rethink your username in that case! haha

    Damn, now I REALLY am ashamed by my username. In my defense I bought the kit while working only 5 days a week. Literally, 3 months later we have been on 6-7 days for 5 years. Good on the income side, bad on the free time side. Oh well it's paid for.

    Take your time, enjoy the build - it really is therapeutic, I had my MKII on the road in 14 months but my next one will be at least 3 yrs as I had so many "wish I'd done that" moments afterwards.
