You even got the nose bar right, many don't but what the hay, mine is a SC poser not a true replica of a FIA. I talked to ERA but the SPF was the most practical option. Now I charge around on the backroads of Washington playing boy racer at 71...hell, I think I will by a scarf !! I would rather have that car than a Picasso but it would likely cost as much.
