Joe:
Allllllllllrrrrrrrighttty! That is great news. Is the kit partially complete or in the box?
My kit is getting completed and boxed up on Saturday. It is supposed to be on the truck next week. Mike's follows in about two weeks.
Hey...can you get two kits in a your trailer. If so, I need you to swing on up to Wareham, Mass!
All kidding aside, this is going to be great fun.
Gary...We need you and Francis to jump on in...the water's fine.

Looking forward to it, although I may be a little slower than you guys getting it together. It's a base kit. The kit is a new generation Coupe (red body) and the only thing he has done is bolted on the steering rack and front LCAs. So yeah, basically starting from scratch.
Anybody have an 8.8 rear end laying around?  Right now I'm trying to decide if I'm going to use another donor or source parts individually.. Fun fun!

Not finding any details about a Manufacturer Certificate of Origin issued to another person from another state and the requirements of Texas in order for me to get it titled here.. Headed to the county sub-courthouse in a few.. Guess I'll find out.. Thanks

Joe...we may need to have a buck building party. I am concerned about letting the body sit is a hot (west facing) garage at the lake house. It gets very hot in there and that concerns me. I have not seen much about Coupe body buck on line. They mainly mention cutting two boards to a certain length an placing them like an upside down V under the roof.

I am going with a 351/400hp carbed from Engine Factory. My brother (whose kit is headed this way in two weeks) is doing the same.

Sounds good Jerry! Let's do it.. Here's one version, but I'm not sure I like it that high. http://www.carrollclan.com/FFR/BODYBUCK/index.html
I'll probably leave mine outside too. Between the Cobra, Coupe, Motorcycle, Motorcycle Trailer and Cheryl's Acura I think I have just about ran out of room in the garage.

Congrats on the deal. Hope he still has the COO.
I've got an extra housing sitting in my garage right now that NEEDS another home. I am authorized to make a very great deal.
I should have paint on mine sometime next week then it will be done (again).
