I only know of one shop that has an Engineer on staff of Mark's Caliber.That's ( DSE ).Most's of the high end shop's are good craftman but not Real Automotive Engineer's.

It takes a engineer with a lot of experience and enough sense to delegate things , ie paint from Joe to make a car like this happen. Remember he has built a bunch of these cars and you learn something from each one. I'm sure it takes quite a few to figure a lot of things out, plus new technology keeps coming. Great car.

My Dad built us several houses growing up, each one turned out a little better than the one before. In the end, all the details and nuances worked themselves out. (storage, flow, livability etc.) The house my Mom and Dad currently live in is culmination of his experience in building these houses. (He did not do it for a living, he just loved doing it) The same can be said for Mark's cars and his knowledge. Perfect!
