Finished building "TROJAN"
I've completed construction of TROJAN. This is a 15th Anniversary Edition Factory Five MKIV with quite a few mods and embellishments. The kit was purchased and started in 2011, but life circumstances led to a 3 year storage. My brother gave me permission to do the build for him and we "restarted" it in Feb. 2014. To say it came out better than expected is an understatement. I started the build to be a driver, but when my brother decided to use his TROJAN license plate, the scope of the build changed. This was basically an "Open Check" build, and I was free to build it any way I wished. Truly a best-case scenario! The power was kept reasonable to produce a balanced, fast but not dangerously fast canyon carver. It won the "Best Under Construction" award at the 2015 HB cruise-in.
The basics are as follows:

A beauty! Nice job and congrats!!
Just the wrong color for a Bruin!:LOL::LOL: Seriously, well done.:cool: |
Looking good, CNGreen!
If you ever decide to sell, you'll get top dollar in Palos Verdes. There's more Trojans per capita here than anywhere. :D |
That is a great looking build and you did a great job. Congratulations and I will be looking forward to any more pictures or specs that you may post. Thanks for the pictures and the stats.

Beautiful build! Thanks for sharing.
|
That's the nicest ffr I've ever seen! Well done!
|
Beautiful work. But then yours always is. ;)
|
At first I thought something was wrong with the dash, then my eyeballs lined up correctly. That is one sick build.
|
I know you are a Bruin, so that must have been a somewhat conflicting build!;)
I saw it up close at "Serpents in the Garden" show in Arcadia and can attest that the paint and build are quite amazing.:cool: |
What size are the wheels and tires ...The finish looks awesome....😊
