[Paul Mischenko]

Hi Guys,

Finally after a 4 year build its time to graduate #8692, I'm # 9 of 20 from the 20th Anniversary MK4 kit. Wanted to thank everyone who takes the time to post ideas and their build threads to this forum. Really was a huge help during my build.
I wanted to give a special thanks to Edward b (Paul Borrow) who's build log was my go to during my entire build not to mention all the help he provided along the way with my hundreds of questions. I also wanted to thank Tony Zullo from FFR, Tony was also a go to resource helping me along the way. Thanks so much guys for all your help.
