Evening guys,
I know this is really old news for some of you, but for guys like me who are just getting started with their roadster builds I wanted to share how great the products are that I got from Bill at FFMetal. I previously ordered his .060" trans tunnel top and .090" firewall, and I just got his battery box. Wow, what nice pieces! I was especially impressed with his battery box - it's a work of art. I won't get around to using his trans tunnel top for a bit, but I already fitted the firewall and set it up for my heater/defroster. Just first-class metal work and the firewall is just so much more robust than the FF piece - I know I won't get any flexing when I install Mike Forte's throttle linkage.
Speaking of Forte, the other vendors on this site have been equally impressive. I especially like the well-written, detailed instructions that Mike from Breeze provides with his parts. I just received my turn signal and lighting control kit and switch from Microflex Labs, and they look impressive with great documentation. And while it will be a while until I install my side pipes, the guys from Tubular Automotive (Boig) were great to deal with and their upgraded side pipes look great.
So... if you're in the position to spend some extra $$$ on your build the vendors supporting our projects have some fantastic stuff!!!
