Evan states that your budget is 30-35K, you have a better chance of finding a well built FFR for that price than an ERA or Contemporary. If you up your budget to the 40-45K range, you'll have a much better chance of finding a well built FIA be it ERA, Contemporary, or Unique.

However, you really need to take a step back and educate yourself on each brand, for they are not all factory built, and therefore are not all the same. As the FAQ link in my sigline states, I've seen some fantastic cars built for 20K, and some absolutely horrible cars built for way over 100K. The trick to finding the right car for you will be finding a car that is well built for your budget.

Any help or leads will be much appreciated.
