Building ERA Slabside #3012

Thanks for the prod Chris. I've been meaning to post an update for a few weeks now. The car was delivered on Dec 8th and it is everything I hoped for -- ERA and Connecticut Custom really nailed it. I haven't had a ton of time to work on the car due to the holidays, but so far we've got the front end pretty much wrapped up and will be moving to the rear next weekend. After that its back to finishing the engine. I'm very impressed with ERA's meticulous packaging of the parts and related hardware. It makes it very easy to assemble instead of spending a bunch of time chasing your tail.

I'll get some more pictures up soon, but it resides in a cramped Seattle garage so its not nearly as an impressive scene as some of your guys workshops so set your expectations accordingly

My first view during unloading


At home after figuring out how to get it up the steep driveway. Pucker factor was high on that one!


Also, Intercity Lines was great to deal with. The driver, Mike, was fantastic and very helpful during the delivery.

Apologies for the lack of updates. There have not been many picture worthy events lately as it's just been a tedious processes getting the rear end fully buttoned up. One of those two steps forward, one step back type of things. Anyway, the rear end is in and I hope not to see it again . Now that the front and rear ends are done it's time to pivot back to the engine.

Prepare the patient


Home sweet home


Again, I really envy you guys with big garages!

Hopefully the updates will come at a faster pace from here on out.
