    Got Insurance and Reg today!

    The day I placed my order, I promised my wife she'd be there for the first "not just around the block at under 20mph" drive on the street.
    Today, got my 30 day temp rego, and insurance. .. and .. well... the tank is near E.. so.. I'm going to have to drive it to the Gas Station obviously!
    Feelin' like a 9yr old on Xmas... as soon as my wife gets home from work... first street legal drive!! (benefit of living in the South, it's 55F today)

    Hopefully.. passing inspection next week, followed by title.. and a few months of "gel-coat" driving before final paint!!

    Wow, what a great milestone. And a tribute to your patience that you could wait until your wife got home!

    Awesome. Looks like you are in San Antonio. I am out by Fair Oaks. If you see a lunatic flagging you down in a cobra (red with silver stripes) or a dark gray Tundra, it's me. I'll be on the lookout for some red gel coat.

    Almost enough for a SA FFR car club. If you let in partially finished 33's that is

    Three makes a club. And a partially build 33 definitely counts. When the weather warms up, I need to come by and check out the 33.

    Count me in! I'll keep my eyes out for you guys. I live up 281 just north of all the construction. P.S. bought a 12v heated motorcycle vest, so you'll see me out and about.

    Is your 33 red? Were you just driving up 281 about 15 min ago? If so, that was me in my contacts at the Valero soon Marshall.
