communication is important for the amount of money these kits cost.at the time when I was reaching out to companies inquiring about there cars it took days/weeks to hear back from them via phone/email.Chris was instant or within a few hours.which im glad it worked out that way cause I liked his design over others to begin with. AP chassis is designed to use modern suspension+components (c5). car will be driven every weekend on street/track. With that said parts are easy to source compared to others that is for there chassis only. If i bend a control arm i can get next day not a month or 2 depending on inventory, an axle i can get locally ect. The best part is I get weekly progress pics. Good luck on your build, all the companies are good just need to see who your most comfortable dealing with cause at the end your giving them a decent amount of money and in contact with them for MONTHS lol.I'm considering a build and was wondering why you chose AP?
I purchased his complete roller package with just about every option other than full rollcage.suspension, fuel tanks and all body panels mounted and hinged,no electrical or plumbing of brake/fuel lines im doing all that.he will do what ever stage you want even take the car to turn key.I'm waiting for a callback from AP. I'm a little confused...How far do they take the build?
I think he has 2 phone #s on his page. This is the one i use. 440-983-0772I'm waiting for a callback from AP. I'm a little confused...How far do they take the build?
Finalized everything end of march,delivery is scheduled for 1st week sept.So, how long did it take you to get from order placement to where you are today with the build?
Looking great, your garage looks VERY clean aswell lol. recently finished my cobra,just waiting to send for paint. i agree I try to plan my builds so I always have a project. My garage is my therapistThat's a lot quicker than I was expecting!
I'm finishing up the mechanical-fab portion of my '66 fastback project, with body work to be done this winter-spring and paint next summer. I do it all except laying down final color, so things take a while. I'm on the wait list for a new C8, but strongly considering a GT40 build instead, because I'm gonna need something to work on.
Thanks for the info!View attachment 123824
Don't feel bad... I have had a set of King engine main bearings on order now for months with ship dates coming and going regularly. I finally managed to contact King Bearings directly and they said the planned ship date was going to be 23 January 2023! (grumble, grumble...)Prestige built the 363 that is in my 66 mustang. We started the build in early 2021 and I think I had the motor in my garage in less than 4 months. We had a few parts that held everything up. I've been talking with Doug (mostly after hours) about working out a few bugs in the Terminator X.
I talked with Chis at AP last week. Looking at getting an order put together within the month. Any last words of advice?
