If I was going to build one myself I'd go with FFR, with SOME reservations.

I'm not crazy about that particular body shape in the rear. But I would be building for track use primarily. With the POTENTIAL lower cost of the build and the reliability of the Mustang type running gear AND the low weight feature it makes the FFR an ideal choice for a "track" car.

I say POTENTIAL lower cost becuase as many have found it's REAL easy to get in over your head with a build and wind up spending so dam much money you could have bought a much nice car all ready built!

It's hard to beat the basic idea of buying anything that someone else has started and never quite finished. Cars, houses, land, whatever it might be.

GENREALLY speaking but not always true:
SPF and ERA are miles ahead of the typical FFR in build, period correct look, etc.

If I had the money to go racing in "style" it would be a JBL hands down, no question it's the BEST! Plus, I prefer a little extra room, which the JBL offers (bigger car).

So combining my destire to race, street, more room and cost considerations: Classic Roadster (Excalibur bascially same thing) for me.

If "period correct" is your cup of tea: ERA, Kirkham, SPF.
The old ones? Hi-Tech is VERY accurate. Racing? Arntz-butler would deserve a look.

SO many choices to make!
