    Planning to buy a E.R.A. kit in the next few weeks and would like to sit in one close if possible before I pull the trigger.

    Yes, I still live in Newnan. I don't drive the Cobra as much as I used to so you probably wouldn't see me. Do you have a Cobra?

    Took another look at ERA’s site and a complete 427 SC roller painted is $47k, not that bad at all. I thought the paint would be a lot more but I have not seen the quality of the factory paint jobs....

    KDubU stated what I was thinking. Revise your budget for an all-in minimum number of $85K. If it was me that number would be $100K. If you're planning to do much of the assembly yourself, be...

    I wouldn't even comment about the 50K price, the other member's have that covered for you. First Congrants on ordering a ERA, I personally think one of the best (Money wise or not) Cobras out there....

    It's going to be tough to put together a nicely equipped FE based 427 car for under six figures. Not impossible, but tough. And as a side note, I've followed more than a few "I'm going to build...

    Hank, I am five hours away in Alabama. Northwest corner. Lots of Cobra guys between us. In an ERA is would go with a FE motor. Maybe 390 block with stroker kit? A TKO 600 would be my choice for a...

    Hi Hank, I am in Marietta GA. I ordered an ERA in 1999 and received it in 2000. I like ERA and one of the reasons I picked ERA was that I could do a lot of the work myself, including the body work...

    50 is a good age... I remember it well. ;) But, there is no way you will keep it under $50k. If that's really an issue, then you should rethink buying an ERA.:cool: Personally, I think it's the...

    keep what under $50k? the drivetrain? The car itself will be far north of $50k I strongly recommend going with a 427 FE. I owned an ERA for 16+ years loved the car. Go with all the top of the line...
