Hola from Virginia!

I think I should have introduced myself a little while ago.

I’m located in Fredericksburg, VA and planning my build while I keep reading this huge amount of information and recommendations from more seasoned builders.

I’m thankful for the camaraderie here and I hope to contribute as much as I’m learning to help others fulfill their dream projects!

Some decades ago I used to turn a wrench as a licensed auto tech but left that to look more into aviation stuff.

Now, I’m getting back into this because of my dream to build a roadster.

I’m patiently waiting for the Mott Community College to release the class schedule for 2020 so we’ll see!

Thank you everyone! :cool:

Welcome, I'm in North Stafford and building a MK4 about 80% done. You're welcome to stop by anytime. #540-659-4645. If I don't answer just leave a message.

Daaaaaaang! Awesome. I’ll definitely be in touch. I think I might have some info that will help you. More than likely next weekend. Thanks JR!

Should be no problem, I'm retired so home alot.
JR

Hello Virginians!

I’m a brand new member. Just signed up today, but I’ve been reading for a while. Targeting a 2026 build, so I’ve got plenty of time to research and plan while I save my pennies.

I’m down in the Richmond area and interested in finding any clubs or get-togethers to pick people’s brains and see their builds while I try to make decisions on all the finer points of my planned build.

Is anyone on the forum down my way or mostly up in NOVA?

Cheers,
Trey

Its nice to know that there are other builders in the area, I am just across the river in Waldorf.

Is it OK to reach out to you guy's as well?

Howdy Trey!

Pm me anytime!

I’m just an hr away from you!

I just offered to Aircontroller via PM, but I figured I would post here as well. If any of you guys are looking for an extra set of hands to help with something (and I'll add a caveat that mine are very unskilled hands at that), please send me a PM. I'm happy to make the drive to help you out with any phase of your build that you need. It will hopefully be helpful for you, allow me to learn something in the process, and meet some likeminded people in the area! Win, win, win.

Cheers,
Trey

Hi, Trey you're welcome to visit and check-out my Mk4 build anytime. Not much left to do on mine but I will need help puting the body on for the 2nd time here shortly. PM if interested.
JR

JR - PM sent!

Hi Hurman, no problem we are here to help.
