Hello All, I'm glad to be a part of the forum! I'm a 40 y/o professional in the global supply chain industry... born, raised, and still live in beautiful Austin, Texas with my wife and two teenage daughters. I, too, am a life-long tinkerer, shade tree mechanic, and overall handy guy that always needs something to be working on. I've spent a fair amount of time working on cars as well as tearing down and rebuilding ATVs so I feel very comfortable taking on the build of a kit car and look forward to the challenge!
My 13 y/o daughter is a tinkerer as well and so I plan to turn this into a father-daughter build... we are targeting a MkIV kit purchase in the back half of 2015. Still researching/planning and working through all the details like engine selection and such, but already having a great time reading the build threads of others and reading through all the advice posted on this forum. The support structure on this forum of fellow builders/owners is phenomenal!
I can't wait to get started and will certainly be posting a lot of questions as I get through the planning phase.
Any guys local to the Austin or surrounding areas that would be willing to converse about their build and let me take a look? I live in Cedar Park.
Thanks!
Brian
