these two could be a close toss of the coin if the engine combo is what ya want and the prices are close. or one is preferred color over the other. if prices vary considerably then take a closer look at the two side by side. car 933 is listed as '200 series' , no serial given. car 925 is listed with serial 1014, so a newer car.

there are variances between the 200 series vs the newer car. many of those changes are easy to retrofit and many are sometimes done by the owners. so, i would not rule out a 200 series car as they can be great buys too. now if ya need the lowered front seat floor well due to being a taller driver, then that is something that cannot be retrofitted. the early car is described as not having true knock offs (they were optional early on) and that would probably cost about $2400 or more to retrofit IF you felt you had to, a big cost difference there vs the newer car which has knock offs.

over time spf changes also included : shocks have been upgraded, brakes too and other creature comforts in newer vs early cars. there should be some price adjustment for that in one vs the other.

the 392 stroker crate if a ford svo should be rated at 430 hp and 450# torque vs the custom built motor's stats. if ya want a big block, then neither car is for you.

so, look em over...price the deal and make your decision. the two cars are close to each other but not exact. each has something that the other does not, it is up to you to decide if ya gotta have it or dont really care..or want to upgrade later if need be.

i have an early SPF and it still shows like the newer cars..and i have done some but not all of the upgrades...my choice to pick and choose which ones. some are nice to have but would not be a deal breaker to me...and if i was a taller person vs being vertically challenged, then i would opt for the newer dropped floor model. alas, i dont need it.

enjoy whatever ya buy, more fun than folks can describe. bill
