Roaring Forties # 091 arrived in Oklahoma on July 18th.
I have been getting everything organized and had to finish up some other projects I started while waiting for the deluxe kit's arrival. While unpacking the parts for many hours I was very impressed with the thorough job RF does in organizing each sub assembly in its own packages and boxes. Everything was very well packaged for safe arrival in excellent shape. Yesterday I removed the suspension and steering rack to ease the metal work on the chassis and to save myself from knocking a knee .
Today ,July 29th ,I started to actually work on the car fitting the first stainless panel in the footwell area and will post pictures as that comes along further.
Notice : No Girly Man flowered drapes in the shop for me ! haha
P.S. wife has never seen a GT40 in real life till now.
first two comments "its a midgets car"
and "how am I going to get in that thing" LOL
