Hey everyone:
My name is Carlos. I just joined the FFF and will be ordering my MK4 kit soon, once I figure out how much of my donor I will take out, and which options/accessories I will be getting from FFR and other vendors. I've been following FFR since 2003 and met Dave Smith in 2004. I have spoken with him in person on several occasions about the kits and the company, but have not been able to realize my dream of building my own kit for the last 10 years. I am in the US Coast Guard, and when I have not been stationed outside the US, or deployed catching "bad guys", something else in my personal life has kept me from ordering the kit. And although I am in the middle of tearing my motorcycle completely apart, to re-weld its broken frame, I'm tired of waiting for the right time to build my dream car. So I plan to order my FIRST kit before year's end. At this point, only death will keep me from realizing this dream. After 20 1/2 years of military service, and being a mechanic fixing other people's (and military's) mechanical equipment, it is time to reward myself. I hope to count on this forum's family for help in building this car. Thank you all in advance. I can't wait!!!
