Figured I'd start a build thread now to document the build and ask questions since my car should be arriving tomorrow afternoon sometime. Although from what I'm reading, the delivery will be a little light, lots and lots of back-ordered parts.....

So far Stewart Transportation has been great to work with. Was a flat fee of $1500 for them to deliver to GA.

I ordered the 25th Anniversary Roadster the day it was announced on Facebook. I wasn't planning on ordering a car so soon but it was hard to pass up, especially since the week before my wife and I had driven down and met wareaglescott and took a ride in his car. I asked for the build date to be delayed a little bit since I wasn't quite ready so soon. Not sure if that'll affect what # I get.

I went with the 18" Halibrand Wheels instead of the bronze wheels. I might regret that, but I just couldn't picture the bronze and chrome together.

I turn 40 in 14 months, my goal is to be driving it then.
I have no experience in building a car, so we'll see if I can make that timeline. Worked at a service station for a few years during high school, doing light duty stuff like tires/brakes, oil changes, and driving a tow truck. But haven't done much wrenching on cars since.
So I'll have lots of question.
