Ha! The '57 is all original and came out of The Horsepower Hall of Fame when I got it. Jack "Doc" Watson owned it before me. He designed the original Hurst shifter and worked on the Hurst Olds, so no gasser mods for this one.
The build plan for the ERA is the ERA rear, 6 pin knock offs, TKO600, and a 428 with 2 x 4 carb set up.
Other options are: antisway bars, big brakes, powder coated chassis, Smith's gauges,
oil cooler, glove box, tripode headlights, pusher fans, Girling brake reservoirs....
The current lead time quote is this fall...we'll see.
