[@UltimateUltimaRS]

Wow. Awesome build! I saw your comment for my Ultima and I think this is next for me! How bad did it hurt to watch it drive away?

[@mastersteve63]

Thanks! I spent 2 1/2 years on it. The bodies from Factory Five are rough to say the least. Nothing fits. The doors and front clam are about 2 inches too big. You have to fit everything yourself and the parting lines in the mold are about 1 inch high. The bodywork and paint took a year! As far as watching it go... yes very hard. But I already had my superlite kit in the garage. So that made it easier. I’m really impressed with the ultima kit. It’s much more comprehensive than the superlite. It reminds me very much of the Daytona kit. As amazing as the Daytona was... I found the seating a little cramped and it was too loud. There’s no way to put a muffler or catalytic converter,: i think I wanted something a little more refined. I’m really enjoying your build! Great job on your lighting and editing! I wish I could do that with my superlite build!

[@Zanzabar5]

@@mastersteve63 How many hours would you say it took to get this refined of an example? Seems like a multi year build is more like 1 or 2 days a week average working on it.

[@plap.]

Funny your attention to detail is like mine but our reasons are opposite. On my own things I am obsessed. need to back off a little working on other people's stuff or I would never get anything done. Yet your result is something I would be proud of. Also if my plan was to sell, which I could never do, I'd make the numbers like the decals vinal so the buyer has the choice. makes your options more abundant, more for your hard work

[@richardmorgan9708]

Looks amazing! My son and I are thinking of building one like yours for our first build and sell. Your comments about the fitment have me worried. Any advice for someone wanting to take on this project?

[@mastersteve63]

Thank you. I chose to do everything. That required A LOT of tools and many skill sets. Building a driveable car, not that hard. Building a beautiful car that looks like it was professionally built or factory quality is very hard. I put in triple the time studying to building. I would recommend a cobra over the coupe for the first car. Fit and finish makes the car and that requires lots of finesse. I was a home builder for many years, so I went into it with experience with finishing details experience. The factory five kit is excellent and their support and manual is excellent too. My advice is be prepared to spend a lot of time in garage and commit to the completion of the project. It can be overwhelming at times. The car is built one bolt/screw/rivet at a time. Get on a schedule and stay on a schedule. Good luck!
