Very well thought out, great detail and a great asset to the Roadster community in general. A true labor of love for all that had a hand in putting it together.

I visit that site frequently. It has saved me from posting a lot of stupid questions. NuBlue is the man!

Delighted to see that there is alignment now between the referenced site and this forum - collectively the 2 most important resources for the FFR builder.

Thanks!

Hats off to NuBlue and any other contributors unknown that helped producing something that was often discussed and generally deemed to be too daunting a task to be undertaken. Excellent job!

wow, my new favorite site!
That will take a while to read but it seems very informative eventhough I'm building a coupe.

I used the site from start to finish over 2009. It is extremely detailed and very well thought out. Great to see the sites get together! The two used together are the best assets for any FFR builder!
