It is both a terrific car and value. They also hold up very well over time with very strong bodies and frames.

We have a gentlemen in our area who owns a 1982 Unique, which looks almost new today. He also just won the London Cobra Show raffle car, which was a new Unique.

The Weaver's level of customer support is unsurpassed. There are many Unique owners here, and Unique offers almost everything from partially to fully assembled, turnkey cars (you have to purchase your own engine elsewhere). It's really a matter of how much you want to spend vs. doing yourself.

Since Unique is not a sponsor of this forum, there is no dedicated Unique Forum discussion here on CC. However, Rick Dorman's post above provides the best place to have a discussion about Unique assembly.

They certainly do last. Here is my 1985 Unique. '85 paint, interior, carpet, everthing. Only the mechanicals have been really gone through since the car sat for so long.



And here is the Unique raffle cars raffled off by the OCC for CF that Clay spoke off.

Hi there Road Warrior.
I've had a Unique 427 since 1991.
Built in my own garage with regular hand tools.
Sprayed it myself with high aluminum solid content paint...looks like a raw metal body.
Took me about 18 months to finish, but I was working on it when my kids
were a lot younger and I did not get to the garage till 9 or 10 at night.
I never spent more than 3 hours at a stretch working on it....except for the
painting.
Great car....great kit....hand laid glass....all the parts arrived on time,
no back orders....great support from the Weavers at Unique, although with the quality of kit and the 3 sheets of build instructions I got I only neede to
call them once.
Frame is great...2 x 4 box section.....check the difference in protective metal
behind a Unique gas tank to a FFR kit......The FFR will scare you.
Only one point where I think FFR has it over a Unique....they have nice rolled
edges on the fenders..... on the ones I've seen anyway.
I live in Canada and have hit quite a few wild animals on our highways and byways....biggest one was a massive beaver....not a crack to be found in the
fibre glass.....gotta love that car.....I think all Unique owners love their cars.
Cheers..........Mike

Uuhh....not to be a smarta$$ or anything, but has anybody taken note that RoadWarrior posted on this 5 years ago? That, plus his byline info says he bought a Superformance.

Dave is looking for common-ground stuff in Connecticut, but has already seen the wisdom of buying a Unique. And, of course, he posted on this a couple days ago, so he's certainly current.
