Looking for folks who have built an FFR in the northern Virginia area who wouldn't mind letting me stop by to ask about their experience.

Thanks,

Pete

Happy to help. I built mine 9 years ago, Mk1. I'm in Reston.

If you go to the Vienna Inn any Saturday around 8:00 AM you'll meet up with the Capital Area Cobra Club. Plenty of FFR's there along with other makes.

Also Katie's car&coffee every Saturday at Great Falls VA, 7:00AM to 9:00AM. Always a good showing of FFRs along with their builder/owners

Ditto - get to the VI at 7:40 most any Saturday morning and have breakfast with CACC - good people, nice cars and VI food! Several of us built FFRs (mine is on the road, MK3, flat epoxy primer black) and we all love to talk about the build.

I'm in the area and would like to come check out some east coast FFRs this weekend. Who is going to be hanging out Saturday morning?

Looks like both shows are fairly close together, so I could attend either one. Is it possible to hit both on the same day?

Yes you can. Do C&C early then VI

Pete,

Another northern VA builder here. I live in Vienna area not far from the VI. Plenty of FFR builders in CACC. As other said above, best to go to breakfast at the VI to meet up with folks there. You are certainly welcome to come by though.

Just a quick note to say that I'll be at both shows tomorrow. I very rarely get to the east coast and I hope a lot of y'all ;) can make it out tomorrow!!

I'll be the big guy with the old black ffCobra.com shirt on. If you see me, say hello!

:)

I am in Nokesville VA and wanted to see if the above meetings are still valid. I want to build a FF5 Mk4 soon and I am seeking advice. Thx in advance.
