Finished building "TROJAN"

[CNGreen]

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:

• 15th Anniversary kit, #2 of 15
• FMS Crate BOSS 302, with Holley HP multiport EFI. 374fwhp
