Well this is my second time around and I hope to have staying power this time!
I’m Mike and began building my Factory Five Mk II in 2002 after purchasing the kit from Gordon. In the first 6 months I was on fire and completed 70% of all the progress I made. I did make it to one AZ Cobra Club Christmas Party at Heresh’s house in 2002 or 2003. Unfortunately I ran into some life challenges and stopped work on the car and dropped out of sight.
In 2005 I moved (with the kit) to Virginia. The kit remained dormant the entire time. Late last year I accepted a job back in AZ and I moved back.
I bit the bullet and was fortunate enough to have a little cash. On the move back I hired Mark Dougherty to complete my car and deliver to AZ when done.
My car is currently being finished at Mark’s home in PA and I expect it to be done end of this month or early March. I’m really glad I did that and will be able to use the car and enjoy the club events!
My house is being built in South Gilbert. Are there many members in the East Valley?
I'll have several questions for all. As you can see Mark is really digging deep and this is the time to do any mods.
As sent to Mark
