With your experience you will breeze through the build, but as I'm sure you already know, the farther off the reservation you take your build the more time and $$ it will take. Most build their cars as FFR designed them while adding some personal touches. If that's your intent expect things to go pretty smoothly with only some minor hiccups to work through. You will also enjoy not having to deal with dirty, rusty, greasy parts -- that was a major plus for me. But you still have a ton of bodywork and unlike steel, you'll be dealing with body panels and body parts that aren't even close to symmetrical -- good thing you can only look at one side at a time as these cars are not straight.
In my case, FFR support has been good. I've really only needed their support on status of back ordered parts and returning parts not needed but they were very accommodating each time I called or emailed them. And I really couldn't expect them to be much help since I modified much of their design during my build.
Good luck with your hot rod.
