ERA vs SPF

[Hal Copple]

Nah, Turk, not taken as "hostile fire."

I don't really know the answer to your question. But i belive 7 Superformance owners have two, and one has three.

I occasionally hear of some automotive big wig who owns an SPF, but lacking names, i can't be quoted on that "fact."

But for sure, i have very rarely read of any replica driver who detests his car. No matter, FFR, Midstates, Unique, Shell, Lonestar, and so forth, everbody seems proud and happy with what they bought, built, and drive.

Sort of like wives, just about every body is very happy with the one they have, but then, since my first one ran off with a lawyer while i was in the bush in the Mekong Delta in '70, i probably can't make that analogy!

Since i did not make any part of my car, i just bought it as a completed car, i have made up for that compelling need by embarking on a relentless mofification quest ever since. I have added a ton of custom stuff to my car, even some used NASCAR parts.

So my SPF is pretty personalized. Mike Stenhouse told me the other day, (Second Strike Leader), that when he was up at the Olthoff' s a week ago, he and Dennis Olthoff went over my modifications, and said to one another "Hal is pretty compulsive and meticulous", (actually, they used some unprintable synonym) and could not find the reason for one of my trunk "accessories", a long piece of wire coathanger hanging off some Velcro in the trunk bulkhead.

I told Mike it was for retreiving my key when i dropped it down along side the seat. I am prepared for anything.

My car is a red/white stripe one, too. None of that "me too" Blue for Hal.
