CT-folks out there?

[jxm99]

My wife and I were in VT last fall and came across a group of Factory Five cobra folks at a local eatery. What a great bunch of folks, all very excited about their cars. I was so impressed with the people, their cars and Factory Five, that I bought one myself. I am in CT and was wondering if there were others in the NE corner of the state that might like to chat on their project and to provide a sounding board as I go through my project. Looking forward to a fun build!

I'd love to come check out your build JMX or come see any other CT cars out there. I'm just getting my feet wet and would love to see, feel,etc some FFR Roadsters before I buy a kit.

The weekend of July 13 thru 15, there will be a whole bunch of us driving up to lake George. If you are up for a drive, head on up and you will get to see and talk to a very nice group of owners. Check out the first post on the northeast forum.

To everyone here! When you registered your FF cars in Connecticut, where you able to register them as 1965 Cobra, etc., and where you exempt from emission testing because of that? Or did you have go through emissions based on the year of your engine?

Thanks,

Jack

I found my own answer. You need to have all emissions equipment on the vehicle for the year of the engine but you don't have to go through testing.
