Cool

I am happy to see that there is a Midstates owner's forum. Here is some info on the car we built. It took 9 months and building the car was a second full time job for both my Son and I. We picked the car up from Bob in late Sept '99 and the car was completed and at the alignment shop in May '00.

It was very nice working with Bob and the rest of the Midstates team during the build-up of my car. The quality of the body and the parts supplied as part of the kit were exceptional. The car turned out great and draws much attention at any of the cruises and car shows I attend. I was able to put 2200 miles on the car during its first summer and I am anxious for Spring to come.

The running gear that I selected includes:
-Full Roller 351W (10.5:1 compression) with Aluminum SVO GT-40 Cylinder Heads.
-Manual Tremec 5 speed Trans
-9" Ford rear end with 3.70:1 Ratio with a True-trac Limited Slip Differential.
-Compomotive wheels
-Vintage Air, Air Conditioning

For those that are building one please feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions.
