Hi I'm Pete - from New Zealand. I'm keen to build a 33 coup next year (2017) . . . Fully Fendered 33 with Hardtop (removable if I can get it through our LVVTA regs), IFS & IRS, probably with LS3 Crate Engine
I've seen heaps of info from Forums and You Tube etc etc but have not been able to actually view a 33 coup as there are none I know of here in New Zealand (yet)
I'll be travelling to Texas for work for 2 1/2 weeks tomorrow (Tuesday 18th Oct) and wonder if there might be anyone in the Burleson or Fort Worth area with a 33 Hotrod that I can have a look at - please ?
The build threads and forums are awesome and have given me plenty of confidence to build a car . . . and I hope to be an active contributor once I get started
Cheers, Pete

Hello Pete and welcome.

Make sure you post this in the FFCars.com forum as well. (in case you hadn't already)

I hope you actually find someone with a 33 to look at during your short time in the US.

Good Luck

Hot Rod (New Zealand) Magazine, July 2012 has Robin MacDonald's awesome FFR 33 featured on it's cover and a great article inside. Autofab, (Invercargill, I think) did some of the work on this car.

Hi Peter;
I'm building a 33 in Granbury, TX which is west of Burleson less than an hour's drive. I will not be at home until next Monday the 23rd due to a funeral in Vancouver, BC if that works for you let me know. My spot has a lot photos in my Album.
