I too believe Troy is spot on. 5K at least on a car that has spent time sitting, even in a heated garage. Myself & another CC member was (were?) at a auction a couple week's ago. There was a 2011 ERA there, with 3800 miles, most were done, in the first year. After looking it over, there was seeping out of the bellhousing a 427SO (Rear main) brake caliper's, front seal on the rear end, That's what we found on just a quick look around, so you add in just those piece's that need attention, that's easily 5K. Yes, it's cheaper if you can do the work yourself, but most of us are too old to be doing that much work our self's. Plus I want the work done right, by someone that knows Cobra's and they don't come Cheap. Just my $.02 Cheers Tom.
