Hello gents, Tristan here from Kempton park Jhb, I have been a car nut for as long as I can remember and it has been a dream of mine to build a muscle car. my wife however knows that with little kids around that would be near impossible in todays times so she got me the Mustang kit for fathers day. I started off with the first issues almost immediately. she is currently picking up issue 2 and 3 as we speak

Thanks for the warm welcome guys, glad to see quite a few south Africans on here as well

Its been a busy few weeks so I havent really had time to do much.

P.S where can I purchase some decent screw drivers for this build as the one that was supplied is not up to standard?

I missed your post asking for a good screwdriver set.

I have a couple of different sets both of which have been ideal for the Mustang build.

One is a jewellers precision set and the other is the type the computer techs use, neither of which were very expensive.
