That's a good question. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't FFR have an aluminum bodied car at Carlisle last year? Maybe FFR will make their own aluminum bodies. Maybe Kirkham's will have to sell aluminums to ERA
FFR showed a prototype of an FFR chassis, fitted with an aluminum skin from Kirkham. They subsequently found the effort to do this upgrade would exceed the target price, and "canned" the project. The prototype was sold to a fellow in Florida.

This was well before the recent offering from Kirkham of the body skin, plus the subframe... they had just purchased the skins.
