    Hello from Atlanta, GA

    Hi everyone! Happy 4th of July! Recently retired and looking forward to actually building a FFR Roadster. Remember calling Dave Smith way back in the beginning about the MkI but time and circumstance got away from me for those 15 or so years. Am specifically interested in meeting any Atlanta area FFR guys to hopefully take a look at their cars and build a plan based on their experience. Please contact me here or, better yet, call me at 770-335-0338. Thanks.

    Welcome, I am in Peachtree City and I have a 33 Hot rod due to arrive within the next two weeks. Here's a link to anticipation thread and engine build.

    Welcome to the madness. What part of Atlanta do you live? There are a few of around and it's about time for another get together. Depending on the weather a few of us may venture out to the Caffeine and Octane Sunday morning in Alpharetta.
    Tim.

    Knowledge is good-Faber.

    I'm so broke I can hardly pay attention-Me.

    Hi Tim. Thanks for reaching out. I'm in Sandy Springs near intersection of 400 and Abernathy. Are you guys still planning to meet up tomorrow morning in Alpharetta? If so, I'd like to join you. What's time and place (caffeine & octane?). That's a great name! Here's my cell if you need to reach me: 770.335.0338. If this is on, would appreciate some basic directions to C&O. Thanks!

    It's good to know there are so many owners around Atlanta. I had just ordered the info to buy a kit when I found a nice one for sale.
    I would love to build one, but it's hard to beat the deal I got and instant gratification was the bonus!!

    Jeez, I just realized that the Mk.4 has the back end of the body lowered 3". Funny thing is that bring the tail end down to the place where older manufacturers like Unique have had it all along. So, why was the FFR tail end so high for so long before (quite obviously)?

    I would love to see everyone in this thread post up their engine combination, build date and any particulars pertinent to their titling and emissions situation.
