I've heard that "timing is everything" and it definitely was in this case. I'd been looking for either a slabside or a 289FIA. I was ready to buy a scratch built carbon fiber bodied car but that car became unavailable, the black ERA in San Diego I liked got sold before I could act on it but fortunately, VERY fortunately, Dennis May decided he was ready to move on to the next car on his bucket list. I could not pass it up. The perfect maker(ERA), the perfect body style (289FIA), a SWEET 347 with Webers, Jag IRS, true knock off wheels, great workmanship and detail on the assembly, located in the valley, nice, nice, nice! This car rides so much better than my old car, that my wife even said she'd like to drive it. (She wouldn't touch the other car.)

Now that the weather is totally titttts up, why aren't people talking about taking runs? Waiting for 190*?
