FF makes a nice kit and its a good value. For any one interested there will be a new kit option in 8 weeks. I will debut my Cobra kit at Carlisle. My kit is different in that the chassis is all aluminum. It's a modern backbone design and is 100% tig welded. No riveting of panels is required. There is more cockpit and footbox room with this design. And it is incredibly strong in torsion. The body is hand laid fiberglass and is a mere shell. It slips on after the chassis is built. The suspension is independent front and rear and all aluminum. The Brakes are 13 inch front, 12 inch back with aluminum calipers. The shocks are QA1 aluminum adjustable with variable rate springs. The differential is aluminum, limited slip, 3:42 ratio. These parts (except shocks/springs) are NEW 2004 C5 Corvette parts. The chassis accepts virtually engine/trans combo. You can use up to 19 inch wheels. With standard body, the weight is under 2000lbs. It comes stock with sway bars. The complete kit cost is $27.900. You get everything to build the car except drivetrain, wheels/tire and paint. An optional carbonfiber/fiberglass hybrid body is a $2000 up grade.
There are alot of great kits out there. Have fun deciding which to build. Have fun building it. Have fun driving it. And have fun building relationships with Cobra and other kit car owners. Being car crazy is FUN!!
