I have to admit, I would go to shows and say, oh that is a kit car as if I had some real basis to have a judgement one way or the other. When I got to studying them I began to appreciate the thought that went into them. When I began to build them I began to understand and appreciate the talent it takes to make things work as they are supposed to, even if in a kit. Since I do not have welding talent a frame off steel body restore would have been hard to justify. In all honesty though, I have never had more positive comments and genuine interest in any car I have owned. I park right on the front row with $100,000 restored steel bodied cars and the guys that did that work wind up climbing all over the car checking out the Factory Five solution or how I changed the factory five solution. Now when I am at a show and someone comments while walking by, oh that is a kit car, I am reasonably certain that he will continue to walk to his four door Honda and drive home. I never get any grief off of chicks. This car draws them like magnets. I have never had anything that actually seemed to provoke women to wave and even speak. They follow me into gas stations, yell at me at relights, it is amazing. BTW, Factory five offers a steel body for these now. The shop that is finishing it for me has several Detroit and Dallas Autorama show first places and the owner has expressed nothing but excitement over the kit. The video clip was really for the sound, I have some clips if you guys are interested.
Q: You pick up a lot of women with that car?
A: Boss won't let me
