Hello all!

Thank you all very much for the add! My Dad and I are in the process of creating a budget and parts list so we can eventually pull the trigger on a Factory Five Cobra. The area we are struggling with right now is to either buy a complete kit and save ourselves the headache of finding parts or buying a base kit but, using his connections to part dealers to buy the running parts needed. Any suggestions in this area would be greatly appreciated. We are located in the West Chester, PA and Wilmington, De area.

Thank you again for the add and I look forward to sharing, eventually, our build with the community!

I went complete kit, no regrets. Everything FFR sent me has been quality suspension parts. I guess it depends on how much time you want to invest in sourcing donor parts? I wanted to build a completely "new" car and have nothing used on it. I also went IRS which I think is worth the extra $ for a better ride.
