    Man, looking at that I really wish my boss had pulled the trigger on his Coupe build. I'm itching to turn some wrenches on another FFR!

    Looks beautiful man! Can't wait to hear it run!

    Frank, bit confused here...

    Our Roadster project has been done for nearly three years and as noted above, my boss decided not to build a Gen 2 Coupe due to fitment issues (extra tall guy) and Dave knows that, so not sure if you're confusing Georgia Coupe's build above with us or what. I'd be happy to discuss your build or offer any advice I can. Please PM me for contact info.
