Alrighty,
After dicking about uploading photo's here are a couple of snaps of the Daytona!
I will spend a few hours looking through the 25 or so boxes that came with it over the weekend.
Everything looks well made and arrived in great condition.
The crate is an engineering feat in itself!!

It's going to change colour, let's just say it's going to end up as I had intended the cobra to be.
As much as I like the guardsman blue I'm going for another hue.

No mine is a RHD gen 2.
Here is a couple of photos of how a FF coupe is delivered, they are packaged very well.

Gav I only thought about this last night but you may have just sneaked in! With D Trump looking to wind up the FTA with Aus we will be finding that those wishing to import things free of duty, or duty exempt may no longer have such luck.

Yet to happen of course.

Hi all,
Just a little update, I have gone through all my boxes now and have found a few bits missing. Which is all very understandable when you are making up a consignment of hundreds of parts.
I contacted FFR and their only concern was that I ensure that I have identified all the parts that were required so that they only had to send them out once.

The parts are being FedEx'd tonight. Can't complain about that service!
