Stig,
Although I'm a new member, I've been following this forum and your site for the last 6 months and I have to say "YOUR SITE IS FANTASTIC!!!"
You obviously put an enormous amount of effort into creating the content and maintaining the site, although I got a bit worried you were slacking for the last two weeks
(hope you had a good time in Uncle Sam).
I got interested in Ultima cars when I went to visit the factory back in '95. Ted took me for a ride in a Spyder and that was it ... I was hooked. Ever since, whenever I'm in Hinkley (I have relatives there), I stop by the unit and catch up on the latest. And it finally looks like I might get round to taking the plunge and buy a Can-Am!
I can't wait ... just the "financial director" to get by now ![](http://www.pistonheads.com/include/images/rolleyes.gif)
Stig, could you email me a copy of your Excel sheet for the build cost (including tools if possible) ... if it's not TOO confidential![](http://www.pistonheads.com/include/images/wink.gif)
P.S. Are you the original "Stig of the dump"?

How Stig got his name is a very long, and extremely smelly, story.
In fact, people still remark on the smell all these years later. I was there at the time, and I can tell you that he smells like a rose in comparison to how he did then

Petrol Ted picked up a few apt monikers that trip too

Thanks all for your kind words - glad you like the site, it makes spending hours updating it worthwhile (note part of the build time I hasten to add
.
James - you're a fine one to talk about having all the hard work done - you bought a complete car!

It's my new website. www.fish-racing.cod
It has nothing to do with any misplaced belief in a mythical being invented to explain to thick peasants why they should do what they're told, and stop complaining about how unfair life is.
