Well done Dave. You will not be sorry. Building my own car has been one of the best experiences of my life. You are going to love the build. Then the fun really starts.

Nice choice Dave. There are some interesting issues with the SBC and 700r4. Make sure you get the SBC guide from FFR. Feel free to give me a call, and we can talk about it. 937-723-0334.

Congrats, now the wait begins. The first 3 weeks are easy, the last 3 for my MKIV will be excruciating. I have 3 more weeks before it arrives.
