I am a high school auto tech teacher who is building a type 65 with my 2013 class. We will be showcasing the partially built car this weekend at the cape cod mall as part of a school outreach program. I would love to see and talk to anyone local who would like to swing by. This is our first build of a Factory Five but I am going to try to keep doing this each year.
This is a video of the car driving in the mall this morning.

That's an awesome school project! Got any pics? I know of at least two other schools that have built FFRs. It seems they are tailor made to help kids learn automotive mechanics.
Post pics of the build at the mall this weekend!

This is too cool. If this was available when I was in hhigh school (a hundred years ago), I would have taken auto mechanics instead of wood shop!!
Keep up the good work, and have the kids put a build log together and post here for the rest of us to admire your work.
Congratulations to you and the kids!

Steve
