Well, maybe. I didn't buy my ERA as an investment. Plus, I never plan on selling it, either. I'll just give it to one of my kids when I get old and feeble (or die). Had I been designing my ERA for a purely investment/resale aspect, I might have done it differently (yes, probably have gone with only one roll bar
), but I built it
solely to please me. For instance, you can't feel, or see, the difference between my 428 and a side oiler (unless you put it on a lift and peek at the sides), and I actually like glass better than aluminum... but that's me, and I certainly won't argue that my 428 is worth more than a SO or that glass is worth more than AL. But to me, my particular configuration is worth more, in the overall scheme of value analysis, than something that would undoubtedly sell for more at auction. It is the
subjective theory of value that controls when resale is not in the picture.
