Turk,
Sorry if you took offense,or got the impression I had done so,sometimes it is late or maybe for whatever reason I am not as articulate in my post as I should,but I never mean to offend or jab at anyone,or their cars for that matter.
Allow me to start over,by "stress free body" I mean that the ffr uses a skeletal frame on which to mount body panels,like an original, to me this would let the builder finish the car with the closest to original look,including the tube frame.
By saying it dosent use 30 yr old technology ,I mean it was cad developed using modern suspension and design technology,instead of some guys building a latter frame ,which is the way MOST cars started.spf may be the exception.
I do think a top of the line built ffr with top of the line componets may be the best replica out there,from an appearance and drivablilty stand point,BUT as had been said,it would cost more than lots of other high quality cars,so it just dosent make sense to me,I believe spf is the best all round compromise,which is what I had planned,until I found the right deal,so my home is in a SV for the time being,which I have discovered to be a better car than perhaps I first thought,it comes down to being all in the build I think. thanks,,Tk
