Alan France Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hello from a very new member. Ordered the FW Special Edition Kit of bits with 2L Zetec yesterday for delivery close to 1st of June. Moved over from the dark side as previous "fun cars" were 1999 Camaro Z28 and 2005 Corvette C6, which I broke. Many moons ago I completed a Dutton Phaeton and Dutton Rachero. Also part completed and sold a KVA GT40 (those were the days) and a Dax Cobra. Missed building things so back for more punishment, now retired so at least I have plenty of time. Lots of question are on the way. Alan 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hello and Welcome to a fellow Bucks denizen - I'm between High Wycombe and Princes Risborough. My Westfield was built by someone else than me, and is 1993 vintage, so I have little to offer but best wishes. I hope it all goes smoothly for you. Others with more knowledge than I have will be along shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan France Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 Thanks for all the welcome messages. I can't make the next Thames Valley meet as I have a Corvette club committee meeting that day. I'm still involved with the dark side as Merchandise Secretary but will be stepping down at the AGM in June to concentrate on my build. I know the bird in hand well, Corvette Thames Valley meets at the Novello just down the road. I've spent a few hours reading the IVA rules, interesting stuff. I don't expect too many problems with the standard kit but want to go for a digital dash and a few other changes, so need to be careful.
