Hello everyone - I'm a rookie at this - my kit shipped from the factory last Thursday and should arrive shortly in Vancouver Canada ( followed by the Canadian kit parts later). I spent the day powerwashing the garage floor and building the body buck - so I'm ready to receive the kit. I'm so looking forward to the build - I recently retired and am looking for this project to keep me busy (and learn first hand how a car and all its systems work). As I said - I'm a rookie so I'm sure I will have a ton of questions - stay tuned....

Dave,

Welcome to the forum!

You didn't mention what you are building so I don't have a build thread forum link for you but here are a few other links for you:

Canadian discussions (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/forumdisplay.php?34-Canadian-Discussions)

How to use the picture gallery to embed pictures in posts (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?18962-How-to-use-the-Image-Gallery-to-embed-pictures-in-posts)

and

Changing a (build) thread title how to and guidelines (https://thefactoryfiveforum.com/showthread.php?19402-Changing-The-Thread-Title-Guidelines)

Ask all the questions you want, most of us - like me - started basically from scratch so we know all questions are good questions.

:)

Thanks David - I'm building a MKIV, IRS, Coyote 5.0 - thinking about the new TKX but waiting for some reviews before I commit.

I only have one question, will there be anything wireless on the car?
Welcome to the madness!

Would have been nice to do the build school (unless you did it before) but there are some fantastic build threads here not to mention the people themselves to help.

Cheers
Steve

Good to meet you Steve - yes build school would have been good, but not going to happen...

I see we have Sailing as a another common interest (Jeanneau 419), unfortunately its south of the border in Blaine - so I haven't seen it in a year!

I'm in White Rock - so if you ever come south let me know and we can meet.
