Interesting thread and you have several good options, as you have two excellent Cobras at the moment. If it were me, I would sell the SPF MKII now and keep the ERA for the time being. Continue to drive and enjoy the FIA while you spec out the build for your ultimate Cobra.

If for some reason you change your mind on a custom build, the SPF MKII is easier to replace than the ERA FIA you have now, had you kept the SPF and sold the ERA.

With on all the Cobras that you have owned or driven over the years, I would bet you already have a very good idea of exactly what your "just the way I want" Cobra to be.

SPF or ERA, MKII or FIA you can’t go wrong … Build the Cobra of YOUR dreams Bill, then drive it and enjoy it, don’t save it for the next guy.

I'm really starting to think I'm not certain what I want. 2+ years for an ERA slot, new SPF slots are spec'd for 2-3rd quarter 2024. I should be happy with at least one if not both, just hate jockeying cars around on wheel dollies. When I want to go for a drive, I want to get in, turn the key, and go, not think which is in front vs the other two that are now blocked in, or vice versa. Just lots to take in, thanks for making me think a little harder on this potential decision.
