Default What are my options? I need a frame.

Who makes frames other than Factory 5? I am considering factory 5 but, with to know my options. I am also open to blueprints.

How much of the Mustang can be used by the Factory 5 frame? I want so be able to use the control arms, loaded calipers, rack and pinion, rotor, shocks, and wheel hub assembly off a common car.

Joey, Nobody can aford one of mine, not even me. If I charged myself $1 per hr. labor I'd be broke.

But if you need help building one yourself this is the place to hang out lots of smart people here to help. Patrick

I second the PPMC frame recommendation - it is most similar to the Everett Morrison frame prior to E-M's current SS generation.

If you require an undercar exhaust there may be some significant mods to make, though.

How about something like this?

What are you planning on doing for a body? That will make a big difference on what frame you plan on purchasing. The body type and mounting must be matched to the frame at some point.
If you want to use the donor concept from the Mustang, Factory Five and Turn Ten racing are about the only game in town. Here on the west coast, I believe that Pacific Roadsters also uses the Mustang donor concept on their roadsters, but I'm not 100% sure of that.

$6625.00 is the price for a finished, powdercoated IRS frame like the one in the picture. This does not included delivery and there is a $225.00 crate fee. I would knock off a couple hundred for a fellow CC member however . There are more pictures of the frame in our gallery here: http://www.clubcobra.com/photopost/s...t=3059&page=11
