Could that be one of the NS builders that already posted their build here?

Seems Alberta still leads the way, with an amazing 37 FFR's so far counted.(I included the three Billybob mentions). You fellows could start your own build school.

Ontario second highest with 28, and BC hot on their heels, with 27, Quebec's numbers at 14 so far.

NS and NB tied at 4 each, Sask. close behind with 3, Man. at 2, Nfld still at 1, and still a goose egg for PEI.

Canadian total, as of Feb 13 =120
That's 960 tires.

Kind of a head count question for the Ontario guys.How many from Ontario have registered their F5 as a '65 ?

What? You mean you don't have a complete set of snow tires for your Roadster?

Terry, FFR1523..that must have been one of the first FFR's in Canada I bet. When did you build it?

FFR1523 was purchased in '98 and registered on the road as a '65 Cobra in '99. I am not the original owner, it was originally built in Oakville.

That's Al Biex original car isn't it? That's the one that started the ball rolling for many FFR owners in Canada today.

I believe Al mentioned it earlier in this thread, and was already included in the BC count.

It's more of a collector car kit right now - I've been trying to find time to finish a rebuild of it for some time.

I believe the first FFR in Canada was Rick Kostka's FFR1063k, which he sold to someone in the St Catharines area. It would be interesting to know what's going on with that one now.

Good to see them being built on the rock!!
My wife is from NFLD and actually is in South Brook right now looking after her father who just had an operation.
We are currently looking at property in Springdale and if it goes through that's where my roadster will end up when we retire.
Luckily the highways are pretty nice there.

Cheers,

Added up the current numbers, and added new owner Scott (johnnybgood) to the list. Halfcracked mentions a few other FFR's in NS but I'm not sure if they may already be include or not, so am hesitant to add them to the NS count.?

Ntudelle, I'd love to hear more about your D&D as I am sure others would, perhaps you could start a thread, and post a few pictures of it, talk about donor choice, the building of it, performance, handling, etc.

Alb- 39
Sask- 3

Ont- 33

130 total so far.

Hopefully I can chime in. I have a roadster but it's a D&D out of Quebec. That would be one more for B.C. and in Langley.

Ontario is slowly catching up to Alberta. You would think that per capita, there would be higher numbers in Quebec?

The builders that haven't listed their frame number, or model #, please edit their post and add that info. I will eventually try and do a CND Owners Registry, listing current owners by frame number, and model.
