I opted for the A & C package, here's why:
1. Gelcoat-this saved me thousands on paint & body costs, and ensured no voids or patches in the fiberglass. I've taken "Best in Class" with it-nobody realizes it's not paint.
2. The body is fabulous. I asked some independent builders-they typically responded that A & C's were the best in the business.
3. Ease of build. I got the FFR manual-it looks like a big city phone book. A & C's is much smaller and simpler.
4. They finance it for up to two years, not just one.
5. I could order all the donor parts from A & C. No junkyard crawling for me. I got a narrowed 9" with 5 lugs-very important.
I like the FFR because of the aluminum panels, but you'll look like Popeye by the time you're finished with all those rivets!
Whatever your decision-enjoy the build.
