Hey All...

I have been looking into getting a JBA Falcon 'kit car' or something similar. I just wondered if anyone knew about potential problems and maintenance issues they have.

Also what are the warning signs to look for when looking around one.

Finally if this is a good first 'kit car' to start with as this will be my first purchase of this type.

Cheers,
Oli

I don't have it now but plan to build another.
Ran a Falcon as my daily driver for 12 years. The hood is very effective and you can put it up or down in 1.5 minutes so makes for a very practical choice.

Mechanicals are pretty straight forward so there are no special things required to maintain it just the normal servicing.

If you are buying used then you just look at condition and build quality.
