Seths 33- 1133. Famous guy donut post.

Since today is my completion date with factory five, I figured I’d go ahead and start a thread. This is my second factory five car, the first being a mark 1/2 from 2001 which I finished in 2013. It was a car that a buddy mine had started and couldn’t get through.


This car is an engineering project for my 12-year-old daughter. She is a math whiz and ultimately wants to go to MIT. I figured we would start a project together so that she can learn all sorts of skills that will translate through the rest of her life.

The basics of this car will not deviate much. We are building a full-bodied roadster with the 32 hood and grill. I tend to like a more traditional line, so to start with we’re going to use piecrust style tires and wheels and I’ll probably do a low profile set later on...

LQ9 HO 6.0L LS
TKO 600
MPS 8.8 with a 355 gear and limited slip
American racing salt flats

While the car is done today, I don’t have a delivery date from Stewart yet. However, parts have been ordered and are starting to flow.
