You can't reverse a multi-million dollar machine. The FF5 is THE Cobra roadster for kid builders based on Mustang and Ford available parts/donors. Wrong arches, too wide in the front and rear, sideways seats, and so forth.
Nerveless, Smith made all efforts to make an icon available to the enthusiastic builder - good value for the buck and a good customer support. Even as a non FF5 owner I was able to discuss front suspension geometry with FF5.
Hats up to this!
FF5 answered the market - you get what you asked for.
It is still a mystery to me, nobody offers just a correct trunk lid for all the FF5's. In the end anyone can identify a FF5 on a perky or a wrong "butt" (plate light/handle don't fit)... a easy to charge $500 fix.
Sorry I hate fiber glassing - so don't ask me.
