You can definitely make a decent vintage looking FFR on the outside (Allen English's car is a great example), but don't kid yourself that you're going to build an "accurate" to original FFR. Just not gonna happen. The layout and construction of the car is just WAY to far removed from being accurate.

And yes, I am saying this with first hand experience. My first Cobra was an FFR that I planned to build "accurately". There's a reason I switched to Kirkhams and Shelbys.

But if you insist on using an FFR for this project, we'll help best we can.
