My dad and I had a great time picking up the roadster yesterday. I didn't think it was possible but he enjoyed himself more than I did and I was overjoyed.
Looking forward to starting a build thread. It will be a powered by a 533ci BB Ford.
It was long drive from Belleville, MI. but totally worth it. The guys at FFR were awesome.
Thanks again!!

Engine pic. Had this built by FPS a few years ago. Ran very strong in my 87 notch.

Pretty much done now. Took these pics today and I should have the car back home by Monday. Color is carbon flash with a nice mix by the painter for ghost stripes. First pic is outside where the color really pops.

GT Trooper : where did you get that grey-colored carpet material for the trunk?
PS : Killer color & stripe. Haven't seen that one.

Thanks for the compliments!
Jakestrer888, Home depot for the carpet my friend. Twenty bucks a roll.
What brand of paint is Carbon Flash? Looks great ,,,
