Dang.....
The slick thing about building your dream is that you can build it using old or new parts. However, it's some what less of a problem on fit and finish when you get the part from Bryan. I build mine in 97' and quickly learned that obtaining the additional parts from B&B makes the build less stressful. Chasing parts only to find that they don't quite fit or require minor or major modifications really gets old quick. Bryan manufactures most of the parts in house, so they fit.
I can also say the Bryan, Barry and Karen are great to deal with. My relationship is B&B is to the point that I can request equipment and they will ship it immediately, I put a check in the mail the next day or when I get the part and it fits. There aren't many vendors that will do that. They're just great to do business with. My car is on the opening page of
www.cobracountry.com along with other B&B cars.

Good Luck with your choice of manufactures.
