Hello All! I started an introduction thread in the general roadster section, but now that it's official, I'm kicking off my build thread.

Here's the plan:
Complete Kit
IRS
Coyote/TKX
Hydraulic Clutch
Power Steering
13" rear brakes
Powerstop front brakes
Wipers
Forgestar F14 satin black wheels 18x9, 18x11

I was unsure what to do about seats, but was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the vinyl seats. With that, I'm planning on rapper extreme for the dash to match the texture.

Living in Southern Maine, I made the trip to Wareham to pick up the kit. Everything BARELY fit in the Yukon and in the car. The pumpkin helped hold the windshield and gas tank in place for the trip back! If you haven't made it, absolutely worth the trip. Great people and great motivation every time I go and sit in the showcars.

I completed the inventory this week and sent off my list of shortages. When i picked up my car, they said I was one of the first people to go through the "NEW" inventory sheet process. I have no comparison, as this is my first car. The inventory was pretty painless. Other than a couple nuts/bolts/washers, all was accounted for per the inventory by FF and the POL list. Only issue was I didn't receive 2 boxes of IRS parts and received an extra box of front spindles. Credit to FF, they're all over it and addressing the discrepancies.

Funny inventory story. So FF says this inventory process is much smoother than the last. I start with box #1. Item #1 on the page - 1/2 rollbar box. I look all over and cannot find 1/2 a rollbar. My confidence is a bit shaken given that i can't even find item 1 in box 1. quick email to FF clarified that 1/2 rollbar box is actually the box itself that it came in. ha! oh well!

With inventory complete, I removed the body and will start drilling some panels to get to powder coat. THIS IS AWESOME!!!
