Any Superlite SLC's in Washington State?

[Andrew]

I'm considering going down the rabbit hole of building an SLC and I'm wanting to see one in person. I'm wondering if there's anyone in Washington State with one? I'm about 30 minutes from Seattle and willing to drive a good bit to see one, just wondering if any are out there?

Welcome to GT40S Andrew. At one time there was a owner’s map so we could keep track of where they were, but I’m not sure how uptight date it is.
Enjoy the forum !!!

Or are there any in OR or ID? Willing to drive a good big to look and see one in person...

I have an RCR40 about 20 min south of Portland, but have seen an SLC on the forum which I believe is Hillsboro-based (20 min west of downtown PDX).

Thanks for the reply Chris! Do you happen to recall the guys name with the SLC or the conversation you saw him in?

Also when building your GT.R, approx how many hours did it take you vs how many hours RCR claims it should take?

I don't remember the screen name but he is the person who is doing a fairly custom revamp of the nose section. I'm sure a little poking through the SLC forum would find him for you.

My car is a GT40 not a GT-R. It was my first build and took me quite some time, due to a number of factors (take a poke through my build- rookie mistakes, paint issues, inter-state house move, work sabbatical). Hindsight being 20/20, I think I could build one much more quickly at this point, and I'd actually almost be interested in doing that. But not quite. The short answer is that I picked it up in Jan of '07 and had it registered in May of '12.

Motivated people who know what they're doing have built them in less than a year. I think without the house move, and sabbatical, and paint hiatus, I probably could have done mine in less than half the time I took, maybe a 2 year timeline?

Andrew, I have a SLC that is in the middle of being put together. I'm located in the Vancouver, WA area.

Andrew - my car is in Tacoma but it is a full on race car with paddle shifters sequential so I am not sure how relatable for you. It is currently getting some bodywork fixed due to some crash damage. Here are some pics:
