    Pictures of "kits" from Factory Five on the rack

    So, I have noticed quite a few pictures of kits on the infamous storage shelf at Factory Five that have nametags hanging on them. I've seen so many of these, that there must be a source for them. Have y'all been visiting the warehouse during pick-ups and taking pics at this time? My kit was scheduled to be completed last Friday and with the Stewart delays, I imagine there is a kit on a shelf with my name on it, literally.

    Any info would be nice as this pic would be a nice addition to the build file!

    Here are her sisters awaiting her arrival!

    Usually someone at FFR takes a pic and sends it to the new builder. I'd assume it's based on request...

    I requested mine from FFR. They graciously obliged even though they were swamped at the time.

    I asked Tony for a pic (he was the one handling my kit review) and he emailed it to me. I'm thankful for the pic cause it lets me know that it does actually exist, since my kit has been sitting in their warehouse for going on 5 weeks now waiting on Stewart

    Ron, you spend so much time there they probably gave you a key and alarm code by now.

    Text sent your way, spending time on this forum continues to impress me with how helpful and genuine you all are! I have never experienced the generosity and patience on any other forum I've ever been part of. Truly a great community.

    This is super appreciated!!

    If any one is looking for a picture of their kit in our warehouse, let me know by either PM here on the forum or send me an e-mail at [email protected]. Would be happy to grab some photos for you of your kit!

    Ha! Actually Dave was able to come through and helped out with the request. Turns out my chassis is being built now and will finish up soon. Can't wait!
