Cobra replica alum body by Alloycars on ebay

[AL427SBF]

Another 'American trait', the voice of one thinks it represents the voice of many. Threats have gone both ways on this thread and I believe the 1st veiled one came from Bill. All this banter, although highly entertaining, should be taken with a grain of salt imo. None of this would deter me from going after an ALC Spyder if that's what I wanted.

IF he is actually making alloy bodies and
IF the bodies are being built to fit the FFR chassis and
IF he would be forthcoming with details and information and
IF he chose a path other than arguing and insulting potential customers and
IF he were capable of admitting poor judgment in stealing others photos and claiming it to be his work

I might be interested in buying an alloy body for my FFR. Somehow I doubt that the check book will out anytime soon.

Hi Mike,

believe me, your checkbook will be not the problem as they will be really affordable but before I go to tell about someone about our FFR body idea I prefer to someone see it with its own eyes sometimes in February.... but this is very depend if I want personally go forward with this idea.
This is something I wanted to ask and get opinions in this forum but now I am asking myself if I have to go blind in this project or be eaten by wolfes before I even start this idea.
I am starting three FFR units end of this month...this is the only thing I can tell.

When taken in context with the rest of this thread, your answer seems a bit elusive. For anyone with and FFR, using your body will present issues that require some specifics that will not be answered by looking at a car in a show and you don't seem willing to share. I'm not sure if you are in fact being elusive or maybe aren't aware of how critical some of these issues will be.

For example: The infamous FFR perky butt. I expect many who would be willing to pay for an alloy body have modified their FFR with what is called a "drop butt" mod, which gives a look closer to an original car. While the fiberglass body accommodates this mod quite nicely, an alloy body would most likely have significant issue dealing with the stresses induced. FFR owners need to know exactly which FFR frame you are using, what you are doing at all body mount interface locations, and whether your body has the perky butt.

There are more examples but quite frankly, one more "just come an look at it" and I'm out. If you can't (or won't) be bothered to answer specific questions, you certainly aren't worth my time to go and look. I went all the way to Miami to have a custom aluminum trailer built, but he was actually willing to answer specific questions.
