Beautiful car. Totally believe owner spent that much getting it professionally restored and upgraded, but why? I could buy a lot of other great cars or other toys for $80K.

Can’t help much here guys. My ff kit is the later model with my front fenders having the center piece molded in with the fender and meeting in the middle in front of the grille. Right now the pieces that fit in front of the grille, the driver’s fender just sits on top of my steering box with the grille resting on the torsion bar just in front of…[Read more]

I also have an early FF kit, as best I can tell, with the exposed steering shaft. Mine also was already built with some build issues – but my errors are on the rear and not the front.
On mine, there’s rubber pads about 3/8″ thick that go between the fiberglass front grille piece and the mounting bolts on the top torsion tube. This raises that f… -

So I read through that forum a bit and I believe I have a Daytona Migi with the separate panel in front of the fenders that bolts on.
I don’t know if you can see very well in this picture but it is lifted on the left side of the car. And as you said the hole cut in the body panel is sloppy but that will be no problem to clean up.PMOSSBERG2013-0…[Read more]

Thanks Bill, actually, the calipers look real pretty when you get them – a sort of gold tone. But, I have a tradition of having red drums and calipers that goes back some 45 years, so off to the store in the morning.

Well, I’m not sure if this helps, but here is the sellers response to my request for more info, in its entirety:
“the car does not have a top with it. do not have the radiator shell or gauges. Have the seat covers, wiring kit chrome grill and wood dash board”. -

Sounds likwe you have an early FiberFab MIGI.
In reaserching the diferences between the various manufacturers (see this thread) we learned the earlier cars had a one piece fiberglass grill shell that incorporated the front splash panel as part of the piece. The metal grill was optional and could be fit over the fiberglass.

The seller is the one who called it a “kit”. I would call it a “poor listing”. The seller has 0 feedbacks, so I gave him the benefit of doubt and assumed that, being a new seller, he did not fully describe what he is selling. I have written to the seller asking for a more complete description.
