    Hello from AZ

    Hi, my name is Sean, I live in the Phoenix area, and I took over a build on a gen 1 type 65. I’m getting excited because it’s almost ready for paint.8B2D28C5-6FBB-4956-9A2A-C99F8DEE89D7.jpg8C0F1199-E5CE-4C54-B81F-8C478070AF4F.jpg

    Welcome! Wow you even got plates on it already -- you must be close to being finished (however, they''re never done). Time to get excited. What color are you going with? I think I'll open an adult beverage and toast your good fortune. Just happen to have one right here.

    Hey Seanjet, Welcome!!! I believe I saw your car at this past Saturday's Scottsdale Cars & Coffee. Can't be two primer gray Gen1/2 FFR Type 65 Daytona Coupes in the Phoenix area.
    I'm located in Scottsdale. I received my Gen 3 Coupe full kit this past September and though the calendar says I'm approaching 6 months, with my being away many weeks in November and December, I'm more like just four months into the build. I've set up a build thread, but really haven't added much to it since shortly after receiving the kit. I'm pretty much following EdwardB's Gen 3 build and except for different engine (Gen 2 Coyote for me and Gen 3 Coyote for EdwardB) and different brakes, much so far is the same. As I get to my own customizations, I'll probably start to add build thread content.
    Yeah, what color???
