    Great day in the neighborhood. Got to talk to many great people in the community, look at awesome cars and spent quality time with my son!!
    Definitely came away with some new idea's.
    Although the weather was not great, the turn out was and even though there were a few sprinkles people didn't care and the band kept playing.

    Thank you Dave Smith, the crew from FFR and all the volunteers. Hopefully next year I'll be able to bring my car.

    I posted some pictures and videos on the event. Really neat to meet all those Factory Five related people and builders.

    I hope to catch up with the Coupe builders next year, or maybe sooner. Probably should do some pre-arranging or have a meeting place in mind or something.

    The YouTube vidoes are more for my reference as I get to the later stages of my build. For example, where to hide headlight relays under the hood, how the front clip assembly hinges to the chassis, how the headlight wires route back to the main harness, stuff like that.
