But one thing for consideration here. Resale value. The market typically favors the FE. Markets fluctuate of course but that trend seems rather consistent.
Not that I would encourage your buddy to build his car for the next owner. But if he remains undecided, then the FE might be the way to go for its resale value down the road.

Yes, an FE will sell for more, but it originally cost more. Many see to ignore that point. There are some bragging rights with an FE, but as none of these cars are 1960's AC Thames Ditton built cars that is a warm fuzzy for the owner and a negotiating point for a potential purchaser.
