So glad this is working out for Jeff. He's a great guy to deal with and has worked very hard on this car.

I remember when he showed me his renderings of the Falcon when I picked up my SS. This was long before he built the first one.

Congrats to Jeff and his crew!

Jeff is a true class act and I wish him the best. Met him in person to pick up my street serpent kit (I had Serpent #3) and you could feel the passion he had for building things. One of my favorite pics of my (sold) 2005 Kandy Red Street Serpent:

It does seem like a pretty bad ass machine. I'm not bonkers about the interior though for some reason.

If that lottery ticket came in that would be the FIRST car on my list. Love it. I love the dash layout and looks.

I hope to see one of these in person some day. Jeff was very helpful when he was in the viper business.

I saw it on the second showing after I came home from Hockey last night. That was really cool. I heard them mention Viper once and they had a diecast model of a Viper (think Gen3?) on his desk at one point.

Definitely a fine machine with great FGT similarities.

I didn't find it on the information tab on my channel guide. What else is featured on that episode ?

The whole episode was dedicated to the Falcon 7 (1/2hr) at 12am...Can't remember if it was the Science channel or Velocity. The next episode was for a McClaren at 12:30.

This was a great episode. That intake is beautiful.

It's impressive to watch the large cf panels completed without the use of an autoclave. My favorite part was the work benches made of plywood and 2x4s.
