Tex,
The other posters are correct in what they said about the FFR. It is a very easy kit to build. There are lots of little simple tasks to complete and a very thick assembly manual to help out.
The best help on an FFR build really comes from the FFCobra forum. There are posts on every aspect of the build, most with accompaning photos.
It has a chassis design that is probably closer to the originals than most of the other cars, and uses aluminum for all of the interior panels.
The fiberglass body "rests" on the chassis and is not an integral (structural) part of the "frame design". In fact the FFR can be driven with the body off. If you read some of the posts on FFCobra and see the term "go cart ride" that is the initial drive with the body off but the car otherwise complete.
The basic concept for the FFR is a Mustang Doner Car. This makes the build cheaper and limits your trips to the parts store as well as your acquaintances with your local UPS driver, but there are lots of FFR cars that were built with non donor " all new" parts.
It is your choice. Go the way your resources will permit.
