Hello from northeast Florida.
Restoration completed on my 1963 T-bird and was looking for a jeep pickup for next project. I could not find a suitable candidate. A friend who has built 6 or 7 Factory 5 cobras suggested the 1935 pickup.

The full fender and hood kit is scheduled to ship 10/2/21. Hope to have it delivered by mid-month.
During the wait time I’m reading the electronic assembly manual, reading the ‘35 forum entries, rebuilding the engine and transmission and searching for a suitable rear axle assembly.

I’m excited and a bit nervous for this project. I believe the ’35 Forum will be a great help as I go “where others have gone before”.

Hiya from Green Cove Springs. There are several FFR vehicles in the area mostly roadsters though, as well as several folks active on here.

Hi to all from Homosassa, Florida in Citrus County. Not sure what I want to build yet. Built a EM cobra in early 90s. Loved it, but traded it for a 64 Vett Conv. No longer have it either.
