    Nor Cal shipping?

    Went to the FFV open house last week. Met Dave, great guy. Getting ready to place my Roadster order. Has anyone had a (complete) kit shipped out here (Sacramento) recently? If so, how much did you have to pay? Any unpublished deals or discounts from Stewart? Thx.

    I had my complete kit 289 FIA Roadster delivered by Stewart to Petaluma, CA about a month ago and, while I do not remember exactly, it was between $1500 and $2000. I will say Stewart did an expert job on the delivery to my home which is not in the easiest delivery location. Very satisfied.

    I was under the impression you were going to start your build next year (per your text to me). Sounds like you're gonna start before me. Remember I live in Elk Grove and can lend a helping hand.

    Hi Eddie,
    Yea, I got a great deal on a BluePrint 427 at the FFV open house, but what good is an engine without a car to put it in? Placed the order last week, should be here middle of June. Got a ton of stuff to do to prepair for the deliveries! If anyone cares Stewart is charging $1700 for delivery to Placerville.

    In 2001, Stewart delivered to Madera CA (north of Fresno) for about $1400. So if the cost has only gone up a few hundred....it's still a deal.

    Brien - how is your build going? I am in Colusa and I am strongly considering an Mk4 with a 427. I have virtually zero experience with this type of thing but like a good challenge

    I am sure there is a good NorCal network that can help if the going gets tough?

    I am making slow (OK, very slow) progress on my roadster in the bay area. You are more than welcome to swing by and get a feel for the project. I may even put you to work
