jpp,
Sorry to hear about your bad luck with the accidents, good to see you could turn it into something cool. I too am building a Factory Five car and am almost done(at the painter now), and I also share your childhood dreams about "THE COOLEST CAR EVER MADE". I see you're from St. Louis so I expect to see your car, or at least you, at Run & Gun this July.
