Car Delivery 

Finally it arrives.........

After months of waiting and arguing with the shipping company, the kit arrived.  It was truly a glorious moment to unload it from the truck and finally have it resting in the garage. 

Before got the kit delivered we had to build a "body buck", to support the body when it was off the frame

The kit finally arrived on June 1, 2000.  It was the last of 4 cars to be delivered.  We were surprised to find out that shipping was $50 more that we had been quoted.

With some help from a friend we were able to carry the 380 lb frame and body into the garage from the street.  The rest of the car came in 12 boxes.  We got all the parts except for one minor interior piece that was on back order

The interior of the car is made up of aluminum panels.  These panels are attached for shipping, but had to be removed to paint the frame.
