To Hurricane owners: questions

[aks801]

I have yet to pull the trigger on building "my" Cobra. What I'll be going for is: building it myself, period correctness to a large extent, not a top-end price point, excellent engineering, and the most pleasing body shape. For some time now I have planned on going with a FFR, especially since their Mk. IV body is closer to the right look. But I still have misgivings about some of what they have done: the line from top of front fender to the rear fender bulge appears too flat instead of tapering down; where the side of the body/rear of the door area meets the rear fender bulge seems off; and the slope of the trunk/rear end is not optimal. All in all it looks good, but could be better.

That leads me back to Hurricane. Looking at a lot of photos, I REALLY like the body shape. Not only that, they seem geared to the home builder, and the price is still right.

I would like to hear from the Hurricane builders and owners about your experiences in terms of quality of the product, build experience, and service and support from Hurricane. Also, is the dedicated Hurricane owners forum active? I don't see anything recent on it, but perhaps if you are registered you can see a lot more content.

Thanks in advance.
