Thanks for the comments and information. I live in Greensboro, North Carolina and found it locally. It was built in 1984 and only has 8600 miles on it. The car came with the original book, which list all of the parts, so I think I will be all right for now.

I was planning to purchase a new 289 slabside in the next year. I had not decided if it was going to be a Superformance, CSX-8000, or Kirkham. Then this car fell in my lap for 1/4 of what I was planning on spending, so I decided to give it a try. My fear was if I spent $120K, what if the reality did not match the dream. Now I can own a sabside Cobra for a couple of years at little cost and see how much I enjoy it. If I have trouble with the Aurora, or decide I want something newer or faster, I can make the decision based on experience.

Michael
