Long time lurker and getting ready to pull the trigger on a roadster. I discovered FFR when I was building the race shocks for the these kits. I worked at bilstein shock back in 2005 in mooreseville NC. anyway I know my way around a wrench as I'm a Merecedes-Benz master tech. Been building cars and bikes for the past 22 yrs. I'm really excited to dive in and see what I can do. I haven't fire up the tig welder in awhile so hopefully I can fabricate some of the components. Well anyways greetings and stay tuned.

Welcome to the madness! You’ve obviously got the skills. I’m in Port Charlotte and have a Gen 3 Coupe at about 95% complete and a complete MKIV and another one under construction for a customer if you would like to stop by,

thank you, after building bikes for the past 10 years I need to give it a rest. The wife is on board with the build and I have 2 little girls that I involved with the project. So out goes my 4 motorcycles ( and boat) for 1 car. This was per the wife as I have too many toys.

Welcome. I used to live in Coral Springs back in mid 80's. It certainly has changed a lot but I still call it home somewhat. I know what you mean about the toys. Not a great market right now for Harleys for some reason, so I guess I have to hold on to mine. :) At least that's what I tell the wife.

Look forward to your build!
