looks like a great car for a great price, to bad Canada won't let a completed kit car into the country - I know someone at work that would love this car.

Too bad you are selling, I keep track of a great group of FFR owners in the Capital Region. LMK if the car stays local.

Good luck with sale, looks like a great build.

That's a good price, you can't build a 427 IRS car for that kind of money. Somebody needs to buy this car!

Canada WILL allow them in - as long as they're at least 15 years old. Any car completed in 2000 or older is now eligible for importation.

I imported a car into Canada last year from Connecticut, so I know it can be done.
