Great Asp,
Bill Wells has all these nice toys but he (like I) lives in Michigan and can not use them all the time. It makes him appreciate them more than those folks in more temperate climates. He is correct in his incorrectness. I suppose that he is right in many things but correctness may be in the eye of the beholder.

I may be wrong, but I think Highland Daytona Racing sells a turnkey Cobra. They also make a nice hybrid car- someone here has one, although I can't remember who- great looking car though.

Grumpy,

Slab Side
Does anyone know who makes a slab side roller or turn key. And if so do you have any opinion of their product ?
I am aware Superformance builds one.

You had to resurrect a thread last posted on 02-26-2003, to ask that question?

As much as I hate to say it, it's too bad FFR doesn't do quality Turnkey card cause the Chassis is damn nice. I would advise finding a good quality manufacture (BDR, ERA, SPF, etc..) on the used market with low miles.... Let the other guy take the depreciation hit. I don't think you can wrong with any of the f the top brands.

Also , to my knowledge BDR doesn't build a slab side model.

A fully completed car is no longer legal. You will have to buy a finished roller from Shelby or spf or others and send it to someone not associated with the seller to have engine and transmission installed. Or buy a used one that is already done

Yes, things change, which is why you really need to look at the dates of the last post above yours (see above the user names, upper left hand corner) so that you do not resurrect a thread that was last posted in 12 years ago.
Check out the following post:
Newbies---read this!!!
Pay close attention to bullet #3
In your case, a brand new thread would have been appropriate.

Well SAI does rollers.......
I would call John at Racewhere and get his thoughts...
If you want a great roller completed John is a great start. It will be correct and accurate.
His last work of art.
