Chris, the best deal I've seen in a long time was a FFR recently that had been banged up a bit. It needed a new body and a few pickup points fixed. I think that car was $12k, with 347 and tranny.

You can check the classifieds section on ffcars.com, or here, but probably better luck on ffcars.com... look for an unfinished, basic kit - as has been mentioned. You need the one from the guy who needs the money.

Then, get on Craigslist for motor, tranny, etc. As Bruce mentioned, it can be done for under $20k if you do it that way. A big variable here is body work and paint. The question is, will you be happy with what you end up with?

You might be better off looking for an FFR Mk I car, complete. I think you can get one of those for $20k.
