Nice. I’m waiting on wheels and radiator also.

Curious, what was your build finish date? Mine was 7/24 but still nothing on radiator.

Ouch! Might need to get a temp radiator in that case...

Look what just showed up. I only opened one box. I did not see the lug cover and spinner. Are they supposed to be included?

Crisis Averted! All in one box. Of course it was the one at the bottom of the stack with the words “HARDWARE” marked right on the front.

I picked mine up Aug 20th. I waited 5 weeks for wheels and tires. Don't know the rhyme or reason how their back ordered parts are dispersed. But I'm leaving my temporary radiator in till I get through MVA, because I'm road ready now, and I'll put the new radiator in when I pull the body and start the paint process in about four weeks. That's when a heated shop will be available.

Since I, too, am waiting on wheels and didn't receive an email - I'm guessing I didn't make the cut.
Maybe next time.

I got the email—wheels will get here on Saturday! My biggest POL concern is the power steering rack...

Well crap...... That gives me gas...... my finish date was 11/14 and no rack, wheels, spindle hub nuts, LCA's, or engine mounts/ assorted sundry bits..... I am getting close to running into build issues on the front end.... I just keep working around those need crucial parts.

My finish date was similar to yours (End of November) and I'm facing the same issues. No LCAs, or IRS arms, no rack, no spindle nuts, no wheels, etc. I didn't even receive any of the loose aluminum panels yet.
Should be interesting to see how long it takes for this stuff to come in.

At least I got the loose aluminum panels..... I know they are fighting through the pandemic like the rest of us so just cruising along on stuff I can do. It will be funny though. I will have the cockpit, rear end, electrical and dash, brakes and fuel lines before I will do one aspect of my build involving the front suspension done LOL!
