Has anybody had any experience with these guys? I'm finding them a bit clueless about Cobra's in general and a bit uppity.
Thanks

Tim,
No offense, but your $77,400 is a bit out of the ballpark for an Everett-Morrison. At your current asking price, you are in the lightly used ERA/SPF territory. Even with the excellent specs your car has, I'm thinking more like $65,000 to get you an overseas buyer. BAT would probably not take the listing with a reserve over 60K, or so I have heard. Get the undercarriage dry iced (clean enough to eat off of), professional photographs (100 minimum), and I could see this in the 70K range on BAT.
Just my two cents worth, since you asked.
Bill S.

No offense taken. I based the asking on what I was seeing on Curt's site and the strength of the Keith Craft motor. Keith and Tony built this engine long before Lance bought the company and drove it into the ground. BAT used another E-M with a 429 (series 385) in it with a 9" solid rear end. Apples and oranges.
We've met in Lake George years ago if I remember right. I do appreciate your feedback.

Tim,
Yes, yes we have, think I had ERA 231, and at least one Mediterranean Blue Contemporary up there a number of times.

BaT is many months out for new auctions, plan accordingly. You can't just show up and get it on BaT these days.

Would be great if you could get to Lake George this year. (Both of you)

No promises though....
