    Hello from Lithia, FL

    Hello from Sunny Florida

    I've built a few motors, cars & bikes here and there and love a good project, so here I am!

    Looking at the Type '65 Coupe kit, but must admit that I'm also looking at completed cars that I could buy and drive w/o all the work to get there

    Here's pics of my last couple of projects:

    Welcome to the party. I live up in Alachua, Florida. I am building a 33 kit. I am also able to build a kit for you if you don't want the hassle. PM me for details.

    Welcome to the madness Cap. Are you working at MacDill? I just left FishHawk last year to go back to MA and will be moving to Port Charlotte this year. I was working at USCENTCOM for the past 3 years. Beautiful area of the country.

    Welcome to the forum. Driving is fun, but building is even better. There are many finished Cobras in our area and I'll bet a few coupes to.

    65 Cobra Dude, Thank you for your service Henry. Yes I'm in Fishhawk but not at MacDill. I drive to work in Sarasota every day via the back roads and a coupe would be just the ticket until I get a ticket
