Well, I'd been aware of that car since last August or so when I saw it on Ebay and it didn't reach reserve, so I called. Found some of it's history on this site and I'd also been talking to Tim Willard at Griot's and had been offered to buy it but I'm a one car at a time guy. I already had a '71 442 cvt. that I had to sell if I were to buy it, so, obviously, I didn't, but I've been keeping track of it, sort of. I'm totally with you on the 289s. Originally I wanted a 427 street with under car exhaust, no scoop, roll bar or stripes, etc. Then I became a 289 fan, so I'm still looking for the right car, etc. I'd hoped to find one in time for this driving season because I didn't want to wait an entire 12 months for a 289 from ERA. So we'll see. Enjoy!

Sounds like your new FIA would be CCX-22505, right? How do you like it by now? May I ask what caused you to pick Contemporary over say, ERA or Superformance....quality? ...price?.....availability?.....already built? Enjoy!
Regards,
Curt
