New in the Upstate of SC

[CodeBrown]

Hello all - dropping my first line on the forum with plans to frequent, if only to lurk and poach knowledge.

Kit on order after a great build school session earlier last month. Complete kit with Blueprint 347 on order - kit arriving mid May per projections, BPE delivery 12-14mo from Sept 2022, I have been told. Looking forward to the build, the challenge, the learning, the community - oh, and the end result!

Thanks, and have a great night!

Hey Mathew- w)elcome to the forums. Come visit Marco and I in Marietta anytime. Build is underway!

I built a MKII and currently working on my 2nd., the 33 hot Rod and enjoy the build as much as driving the end product. Have fun!

Welcome Aboard But More Importantly, Welcome To The Factory Five Family!
...............................A Grand Adventure Awaits You!

Suggestions:
1. Get the manual and read it a few times while you wait for your kit to arrive.
2. Check out the build threads from Edwardb because they really supplement the manual.
3. Watch the Factory Five assembly videos because they will help you see what you'll be doing.

Good Luck & We Know You'll Find That The Journey Is Worth Taking!

There are plenty of FFR's around, or those of us who used to own FFR's with build knowledge. Where (a town perhaps) in the upstate are you located?

A little short notice, but there is the monthly Cars & Coffee at the Michelin corporate building tomorrow morning from 8-10am
Another smaller show at Trailblazer Park in Travelers Rest, this one for Shriners Hospital, starting at 10am till 2 or 3pm

I won't have my cobra at either, most likely the 70 Shelby convertible instead. Feel free to stop out and say hello

Welcome Matthew! I just started my MK4 build in August. Not sure where in the upstate you are, but if you find yourself in Fort Mill, feel free to drop by!

Thanks, everyone, for the welcome and well-wishes. I am located in Anderson, SC - so not too far from a few of y'all. Excited to get going, but as mentioned, lots of research and prep to do - and maybe a trip to ATL to see Alec and Marco's build progress!

Welcome! I too am doing the complete kit with a 347 and I am located around Wilmington NC if you're ever around!

We are fitting the body onto our fully working go-kart. Your kit arrived? woo-hoo!
