16 weeks to deliver the boxes of coupe parts … maybe 20 weeks for the LeMans, so timing isnt the factor… it would be a winter build if it happens this year… Im torn… need to walk away for weekend … no internet… bye bye

if you get the car, its going to be an immediate OMFG in traffic anywhere. And since it would be the first production kit made by the company NO ONE will know wtf it is until the word of mouth spreads about it

;D, just don’t ask me to help you decide for either coupe or open top as I’m biased and a sucker for a roof over my head!

Not sure what you mean… 5 years… this is 1st motor issue… all other issues were wasting trannys… So 5, years, 5 trannys… I fix them fast… its not “down” for much time at all. Never been down more than 2-3 weeks unless I was building a kit.
