    Graduate 9160

    Never got around to posting a build thread, don't know how those who did found the time! Kudos to you.
    Finished Car 1.jpgFinished Car 2.jpg
    Building the car was one of the most rewarding things I have ever done. There were a lot of ups and downs, mostly ups, and the downs were most always fixed here on the forum, thank you forum members.
    Finished Car 8.jpgFinished 10.jpg
    I miss the build but the result is more than I had hoped for, thank you Factory Five.
    Finished 14.jpgFinished 18.jpg
    I'll still spend time here and hope to see many of you on the road or at a gathering over the coming years.

    Thanks Steve. Anxiously awaiting your second first start! Mine was way more successful than the first, I am sure your's will be also. Good luck!
