Hi All,
I'm fairly new to the forum but not to FFR. I built a Mk1 back in 1998 with a 1990 GT convertible. I don't remember the Kit number but I think it was in the 300 range....Sold the car to support my wife's pursuit in Med training.
So now years later, I'm prepping for a Coupe build that was ordered on May 20th, 2013....My donor for the Coupe build is a 2004 Mach1 - 4.6/5spd with only 5,139 miles before some knuckle head rolled it. Lucky for me!

I'd like to chat with anyone near me (Washington/Oregon) who has a Coupe about their build experience. I thought I saw something about a car being here in Richland, WA on the forum.

Thanks and I'll see on the Road.

Hi Dave,

Awesome that you are building a Coupe!! I have a couple of Coupes (IRS and a solid axle), and while I don't live in the Pacific Northwest, I serve as the High Performance Driving Event Director for the National Auto Sport Association (NASA), and will be attending a number of events in both the Seattle/Kent/Olympia areas, as well as Portland this year. I will be at The Ridge Motorsports Park on June 1-2 if you'd like to get together. Hopefully others living in the local area will chime in here as well.

Ah, Karen, you are keeping the coupe dreams alive for so many people. You will be a tremendous asset to the folks in the NW region. Thanks for all you do!

HI Dave,
I am in the Portland area and ordered my coupe On Tuesday. I'll bet they get delivered on the same truck. It will be a 5.0 coyote build complete kit so we will be going down a very similar road. My son lives in Richland so we will have to get together and commiserate on the joys of our projects.

And Karen, I have enjoyed your car through the forum and FFR website postings. When will you be coming to Portland?
