Lowell means you should search this forum for discussions on Street Beasts. The reviews have not been glowing...

Well I've even heard bad things about ffr and there suposed to have the best kit out there so I guess it is a get what you pay for world. What would be cool is if someone went on a spy mission with a camera and came back with a solid documented proof of shottyness hell most scratch builders start with nothing and do an out standing job. If this is a source for workable bodies we should know. Anybody want to do some covert opperations. Patrick

If you are very frugal, can spot deals when they come up, and do all of the work yourself, You should be able to build a Factory Five for that money. You would have to go completely donor by finding a good Fox body Mustang and watch for FF5 to have a sale but it can be done.
Check on www.ffcobra.com and also check the classified ads on their site and you just might find what you are looking for.

Sorry geoz3, we did everythiing possible to make you happy. You're a smart a___ and unable to be dealt with. You were one of our first two cars ever, we even offered you the NEW Roller with the proper strut deminsions. Your body was garbage? You told GENE that when his friend personaly came to our shop and i witnessed the operation and LOVED IT", he saw none of the accusations you're claiming", I'll bet we put as much or more pride in our work as any company. We look to feed the family, not the country, we're not trying get rich quick!!!!!!
BAD BAD BAD BAD NEWS or BAD BAD BAD BAD Attitude form you got you no where and will never get you anywhere. We do 3 times more now to the Kits than when you purchased yours, and there $1,000 cheaper", I don't understand you now and didn't understand you then. I know customers come first, but you're sick, Kit Cars to Go, an American Kit car company....

Then come pick up your KIT and bring me the new one, it's public now, let the forum track your replacement progress. Post the schedule of when you will pick-up the old kit and replace it with the new one. Put your money where your mouth is.

Brian,
You are still the same old con man. You delivered the car and left in 10 minutes, not 2 hours, remeber you had to get the kids to the beach before it got dark? One small defect, HA HA. Look at the car on Ebay, you claim it sets 3" higher, try 1 foot, and placing the engine in the frame won't fix that. The body you delivered to me has more patches on it then a quilt. The frame, you don't want to go there, One door weighs in at 45 LBS, the other, 15 lbs, that is in fact Kit Cars to Go QUALITY. I guess I'll take some pictures of your fine work and post them here. I just hope no one else makes the mistake Dave and I did. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE.............

This is the last post I will make regarding KITS CARS TO GO, If you buy one of the kits you have wasted $8500.
Dave Dean bought the othjer kit that Brian talks about.

I have not had a response to my letter sent over a week ago.
I have been gone since 3/21 - and indicated that to them -
I got a picture of a new frame - that Brian says is 2" lower- but I don't believe it,
I guess I will have to call JP as I have a phone number.
I have a friend that also gave me the phone number fro NHTAS - in DC - and he says I can turn these guys in on a safety violation notice and they will come out and inspect the manufacturing place and just cause a pile of problems for them, and may even shut it down since this product is going between states.
Just thought I would check on your latest.
Her is Brian’s partner asking a question during the bidding process on EBay, I did not know who he was until after my problems started and had contact with J.P., Brian’s partner (AKA Bigmoneyleasure)
I asked this question of J.P., never got the answer.
“In reviewing the ebay bidding process for the car I bought I noticed that you asked a question, posing as a customer, seems a bit odd to me. “

Q: Brian, thanks for emailing me about your new kit car. Although, I am not interested in it right now, it proves what you told me back in 4/06 when I purchased my 87 Sterling from you; that you were going to move forward and make more kit cars. This one sure looks great. I was impressed with the strong chassis that you are now using. In your message, you said that you have a chassis builder with you that used to make frames for race cars. I can believe that. My Sterling runs great and I am sure all your other kits will perform just as great. Good Luck on this one.
A: Hello Bigmoneyleasure, I haven't seen you since the Carlisle show in VA. I'm glad to hear your Sterling is still in great shape and hopefully should remain for years. Wee are still here for you shouuld you ever need us again. I don't know if the Kit build is responsable for the Performance you and the Sterling displayed or just Great driving skills on your part. Maybe a combination of both, Ha Ha. Please feel free to contact me anytime. Charles is our Chassis fabricator now, and yes the Chassis have come a long way to achieve what could be the best perfomaning design we've produced todate for thte Roadsters, all the others as well. Thank you so much. Sincerely, BBGINC04, Brian. P.S. The whole Kit Car family says "hello" :-)
