If you look at what you get, the Lone Star is less expensive than the FFR, and as stated, resale value is usually higher. The Lone star frame is the sructucture of the car. When it's been referred to as unibody, that's not to say the body is a structural element, but rather the body and the interior tub are bonded together rather than all of the aluminum panels.

Also, the LSC IRS is heads and shoulders above the FFR. It uses the 2000 or so Explorer components and is much more readily available and tougher than the last of the bone yard scrap Tbird refuse. Give it a look.
