May, June, July - Cleaned and prepped the shop. Waiting patiently for kit and component deliveries.
07/14/18 Notified by FFR that my Kit was complete and ready for shipment (right on the promised date) but no truck from ST.
07/27/18 BPE engine arrives (a month late but, what the heck, still waiting on ST to pick up my kit from FFR.)
08/03/18 I was notified by FFR that my kit is loaded on the ST truck. ST confirmed delivery will be this next Thursday.
08/09/18 Stewart Transport showed up as promised. Because of my narrow driveway, the kit was off-loaded at the top of the drive. Driver Jim was professional and through, hauling every box and setting the chassis onto my jack stands. All of my delivery anxiety was lifted, the kit set up in my shop. Now the fun begins…..
08/10/18 Preliminary inventory complete, organizing shop to start the build.
