Jay, we are on the east coast in Cocoa and work at Kennedy Space Center, hence my user name. My 75 year old dad bought kit from a guy in Titusville who had it sitting in his garage for 20 years. We were lucky that he still had a lot of the original parts but he was missing some others. My dad spends 2 - 3 hours a day on the car since he's retired. My job is to track down missing parts and collect information off the internet since my dad doesn't do computers. We're splitting the cost of the car since I will be the one driving it. I ordered the crate motor from "Powered by Ford" over the Christmas vacation. Hope to have the car drivable later this year. Thanks for making contact.
