The only advantage I see is that there are people always willing to pay for the Shelby name whether buying new or used. Plus you can have your name in the SAAC regristry with the Polish bros but not with ERA.

There is a consenus on this forum?!?! I think must have missed that.
When comparing the fiberglass cars, the Shelby is a lot more like an original in terms of the frame and other bits. While the ERA is mostly concerned with the exterior of the car looking correct. Although you really need to go to an aluminum body Kirkham or Shelby to really approach originally, there is definitely something to be said for the fiberglass Shelby being more like an original than an ERA. So I don't consider the Shelby name and SAAC registry to be the only reason to buy a glass Shelby over an ERA.
