[ERA Chas]

Having a name like 'Malibu' makes it hard to understand the price shopping for parts and paint on a top quality piece like an ERA.
For excellent paint in CA, look up Ken Pike in NorCal. Not cheap or cheaper than Walt's jobs but excellent-befitting an ERA. Pike has ERA paint experience also.
Kirkham guys don't shop cheaper parts; they buy the excellent parts that KMP supplies and that's the same as ERA. The price also buys you unmatched customer support from both manufacturers.
Don't skimp on an ERA project - order a cheaper project car.
