Does anyone else have a problem with the front strut of the roll bar intruding on the passenger compartment? I'm thinking if I built a 289 model, I would make it with a 427 style roll bar on it, regardless of originality.

I really like the FFR 289, but one thing that they do with their bodies that is just a deal killer for me is the rocker area below the doors is flat from the door lip to the bottom of the car, where the originals, and the Kirkham, ERA, etc... models wrap it around with a curved body shape. It makes a huge difference in how the car looks from just about any angle, IMHO. The rest of the car they did a great job on.
