Mid-Week Pickups!

Posted on June 27, 2024 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

Happy Wednesday!

Today, we had some exciting pickups!

Mike E. picked up a Type 65 Coupe build for Lawrence C. this morning.

Later in the afternoon, Tom R. took home his long-awaited Factory Five Mk4 Roadster build.

Tom has been dreaming about this moment for a while and even brought his loyal companion, his second favorite girl (his first favorite being his wonderful wife, who deserves a huge shoutout for supporting Tom’s dream!).

Tom aims to have his car ready by next April, so stay tuned for updates on his journey!
