Bio

I live in Iowa and work as a mechanic. Hobbies are fishing and tinkering on projects. Next potential build is on a 2010 Taurus SHO.

How did you find the Goblin?

Discussion with co-workers and internet searching.

What drew you to the Goblin?

The idea of assembling a car from scratch and using parts from a donor vehicle to give life to the Goblin.

How does it fit into your lifestyle?

Weekend warrior

What have you modified that sets it apart?

Originally was a 2.2L NA engine from the donor, but converted it to a turbo setup, with a water-to-air intercooled setup.
