well, my boss and myself have produced 3 full chassis cars since i have been here(2 months). here is just some pics. of the stages the car goes through. i will take step-by-step pics next time i glue a teklam together and then you can really see how the car goes through stages of being built.
^^CF body+CF/kevlar/aluminum teklam= match made in heaven. stiff. strong. light
PIC of our gulf(fordGT) theme’d street car…just for you mike(mpd)
my camera does not do this purple justice whatsoever.
and those are the three cars i have built. hope you enjoy
Wow that looks awesome, great work.

I was just about to nut over that, and then I read your description. <3
Do these use a G50 transaxle? Because that’s definitely a 996/997 shift knob and mech
Do you get an employee discount?

R&P gets flipped and then transaxle gets turned around, would if that’s how it’s mounted. Some of the kit car guys do the same, and the G50 is an option for the Ultima GTR. An variant of the G50 is in the GT3.
OT: Chris how much do you make?

well after the first 2 months we got our bonuses(and we had the best bonus period weve ever had) and it was about 16-18 an hour
biweekly 80 hours minimum
but i “make” “$12” “an hour”
i like it.
how did you land this job and what were you doing before this?
i was in school at wyotech with about 2 months left and saw an add in grassroots motorsports that read “want to build supercars in florida?” and i said FUCK YES!
so i did well at school and sent my resume and they were excited to have me there.
first REAL job. caddy’d for 5 years/did irrigation/etc
