Well patience is not one of my virtues. Even with my October 16th MK4 kit in motion I cannot wait any longer. That combined with the 6 month backlog on parts due to the supply chain issues I decided to move forward and just bought an MK2 today. When the world improves and I'm a little closer to retirement I may go ahead and look to build again.

The MK2 I bought today is Portofino Blue with a 347ci 450hp crate engine and T5. Combine that with the full set of Webers and Goodyear Billboards and it would be tougher to jump in more feet first. I'm sure I will be around to pester all of you continuously as someone said these builds are never 'done'.

If anyone recognizes the car I would love to get in contact with the previous owner or builders. The car has a Florida title from 2017 but I purchased from a Texas consignee.
