Thought I would give my two-cents worth on the "why buy a Hurricane" question.
I originally began searching for a Cobra replica in the logical place (FFR) due to their extensive advertising. After pricing everything out and ordering their build manual, the thought occured to me that if I wasn't careful, I'd end up with basically a "Mustang" in my garage (that looked like a Cobra), but had 70,000-100,000 miles on it! This was not a time in my life I needed a high-mileage car sitting in my garage needing attention..............
After pricing a Hurricane with all new parts (and crate motor/ new transmission), I realized I could have a NEW car with very little increase in $$$$$$$. After 1,500 miles, I'm happy to report I think I did the right thing. My Hurricane has been extremely trouble free, with NO repairs necessary to any components supplied by Hurricane. No electrical problems, no brake system problems, no suspension problems, ect.
With the exception of a problem I created (car rolled out of my garage), I've enjoyed driving my car every day weather permitting! In addition, the public response to the Hurricane has been tremendous!!!! The Hurricane is not a car you will ever need to make excuses for! These things, combined with the fantastic service provided by the crew at Hurricane, have convinced me that purchasing HM 1001 was an excellent decision!!!!
