Kirkham and SAI cars the same?

[Hal Copple]

thanks, wayne, i wasn't actually asking because i need another car, my wife would toss me out with the cat if i brought up the subject. I have seen lots of FFR cars, they are often displayed by the Whidby FFR dealer from NC at the car shows, i am pretty familiar with what they are like under the skin, and i have seen any number of Midstates, too.

Just was curious, it sounds like they are very similar but not identical.

I am happy with my own car, and am not in a position to have more than one "toy". At some point my minivan, which is also available to me, since my wife got her Jag for our 25 th anniversary, will die, it has 144K miles on it. I have been thinking about eventually, when necessary, replacing it with a turbo Mini.

But i have remained enamored of the '69 Dodge Charger R/T, my first new car back then. If it was my daily driver back then, why couldn't a nice, restored one be so now. But the reality of old cars is that they are pretty worn out, no matter how restored they are. My business partner has a '71 S Porsche, and an early 930 turbo. One or the other is virtually always in the shop.

But thanks for the info, i just had some curiosity about the two aluminum cars.
