Has anyone in the Wisconsin area purchased the steel body for the 33 Hot Rod?

Steel Bodies have not been released to the general public yet.

I see FFR lists it as a $9,900 option to order with the 33. But, not yet available? I guess I can call them to see when available.

They were telling us "late" first quarter of the year. Should be released about the same time as the Pickup is released to the general public.

One question that I think I already know the answer to. The hard top is still fiberglass correct?

Bob Drake Reproductions may have some steel body parts available, that would work. Pretty sure he had fenders, etc.

Jeeperz,
What can I say, Barb wants me out of the house. But, seriously, I have been looking for a new project for several months now and have worked thru the usual...another Roadster, Daytona, 35, or restore a classic? I haven't decided yet but I am getting itchy. But, if someone in my area is working on a FFR steel body, I was hoping to look at one.
And yes, still in gel coat but if things go smoothly I'll be driving in paint by June.
As an asside, Barb and I are planning a road trip in September and will be in your neighborhood so we may look you up as we pass thru.
We hope you're doing well. Jay
