    Yup I got into this part of my build and struggled. I had to bring them to a buddy’s shop that had a band saw and several drill presses to get it done clean. My opinion is this part of the truck was supplied by an outside vendor that could be retro fitted to many Types of builds. Rob

    Agreed. IMO for 30K maybe the doors should bolt up? Ive been pretty disappointed in the level of mods, fabrication, modifying required to get this thing put together. Maybe its just me...door and hood/cowl alignment is a joke Probably piss some people off but needs to be said...

    Yeah, same with the '33. The only kit that is at the level that it should be is the Roadster, everything else still needs work and it kinda ticks me off that FFR is off with Speedstars and other ventures that defocuses them from resolving issues with the current stuff they sell.

    Bnelson,

    I agree. I do not think I will build another FFR. Too much variance.
