    Rick's Mark V Roadster Build

    Well I finally pulled the trigger on purchasing a kit to fulfill a lifelong dream. As a teenager I saw the movie Gumball Rally and fell in love with the Cobra. If you haven't seen it, it's a must watch! I recently retired from the computer software industry and could not wait to pursue building one. I am 6' 4" so I was excited to see the new changes to the Mark V. I took the FFR build class at Mott Community college to make sure I was up to the task and to make sure I would fit. Zero to doing donuts in 3 days! It was quite the experience and gave me the confidence that I would be able to do it. I was able to build a garage with a lift and now I'm just waiting for shipment. It is scheduled to arrive 5/30!

    I purchased the full kit and the Blueprint 347 EFI + PS and AC. I live in Florida and will absolutely need the AC!

    Garage is ready:

    Now all I need is the kit and the engine! I'll be done in no time!
