FFR basic kit reality

[wrongwaywillie]

Hello,

looking at building my 1st cobra, and Iam looking at the basic kit from factory 5 racing.

I am thinking at 15 k with shipping, and 5 k local mustang I should be able to have a road worth car.

of course no bells and whistles at first but I can add stuff later.

this being a donor build I would be replacing bushing and such as I tear down the mustang .

I have been messing with cars my whole life. build racing and just cruising.
i can weld , fab, body and paint enough to get by. I have most tools needed for most general jobs.

1 little kink in the project is I am a chevy guy, but always loved the cobra.
a family member bought one a few years ago (572 RWHP 460 AUTO).
his is a something carriage kit that had literally been sitting in a barn unused for several years.
so I have ridden and driven one before

has for purpose, I am only looking at cruising her around local shows, maybe an auto once just to try it. not looking to build a 80k show car. just a local beater so to say.


so is the basic kit really doable, or are there things that are must haves that don't come with the kit or a full driving mustang.

thanks!
Will
