FFR doesn't make a Saleen S7 replica. They're going to be putting out what looks like a CAV GT40-based replica eventually, though.Your pal,

meat, i didn't say that they made a Saleen S7 replica, but they are certainly creating something that could be modified to look like it! have a look at these: http://www.factoryfive.com/table/ffrkits/GTM/GTMkit.html
and then

Well, in theory that's correct. However, if you look at the cars side by side, there' alot of work that would be necessary. 
I understand what you're saying, but remember that the S7 is longer, lower, and wider than the FFR. If you get right down to it, the FFR is really pretty much a copy of this car, and is based on a CAV GT40 replica (Dave Smith, one of the owners of FFR, owns one): 
I believe that you'd be hard-pressed to make the FFR car look like the S7 using the existing bodywork; you'd be better off starting with a Valkyrie. I'm not disagreeing with you, I'm just pointing out the differences. Your pal,
Meat.

Hey Meat,
Where can I find more info on the Valkyrie and possibly modifying it to an S7?

The Avenger and Valkyrie have been out of production for about 20 years. You can pick them up on ebay for cheap. That's where I got mine. Your pal,
Meat.
