My Post Lightning Build

[Briansshop]

I changed my mind on the Factory Five car for now. Might still happen, not sure ATM. For now,I bought a 65 Falcon online and it's in the transport right now OTW to me from Cali. Won't be much action for a few more weeks, but for anyone that wants to take a look, I started a build thread here:

Should be here mid next week:

Well, is the car as solid as it looked in the pictures? You happy with it? I’m curious if you plan to keep the original paint.
Interior pics when you get a chance.

I'm still waiting on it! Word is today,fingers crossed. I hate this situation,outlaying $$ and feeling helpless just waiting for the car to get here. Will never do again!

That’s how the guy felt that bought your truck.

The Lightning was picked up on a Friday and he had it on the following Monday! Super fast.

The Falcon was picked up on the 3rd, was supposed to be here on the 9th,and I just keep getting told...it'll be tomorrow...tomorrow. They say its coming today,but...

Any word on your old truck? No one has seen it...

 

[Briansshop]

No, have not heard anything on the truck. Last I talked to him,a day or two after he got it,he said he had been driving the hell out of it and had been into the boost a little. I told him,wait until you feel 20psi! He said he was way happy with it,and it was nicer than he expected. When he had the funds,it was going to get a Coyote swap.

And I got a call from the transport driver a few hrs ago,10:00pm tonight ETA!

 

[tomlightning]

Its about 11 now. You get it?

 

[Briansshop]

:bm::bm: Hell no! He's 2 hrs late for calling to say he's an hour away! WFT?

 

[tomlightning]

That really sucks! Pour another drink lol

 

[Briansshop]

Finally at 12:45 am!








Gave it a quick look over,feeling good ATM. I think it might be original paint. Dam thing seems too nice to cut up....NA!
