WHAT YEAR
1996 EXCALIBUR, 12,000 HAPPY MILES.
THE ONLY REPAIR WAS CHANGING THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR. I ALSO CHANGED THE PULLEYS AND OPENED SIDE PIPES. THE GOODYEARS HAVE 0VER 60% LEFT. B. SMITH |
Began construction in 1993. Driveable in 1996. Nearly 6000 trouble-free and deliriously fun miles since then.

ERA chassis #002, I don't know what year it was built, would love to find out if anyone has any info....Bob???? Anyhow it runs great, handles good, body is still in excellent condition with I think mostly original paint, and it's for sale.

1999 FFR ... bought it 2 months ago (3rd owner), it had 6700 miles then. Now, 8700 miles.
DRIVE IT, otherwise you have a really nice piece of garage furniture. |
Ok, fresh from the man in the know....Bob at ERA. ERA chassis #002 was built in 1981.

I got my E-M on the road in 97. It is the first one they built with the Lincoln IRS. The car spent 1 year sidelined while I got the $$ to replace the engine. (cracked the block on the track at the Northeast replica chalange)
Up here in New Hampshire we get a six month season. The car is my daily driver for those 6 months. It has 24,000 miles on it and I'm putting on 6,000 or so a year and loving every mile. :D |

I will have had "POOKIE" for two years this February...it was created in 1991, so now it is a "teenager", and is starting to act like one, at times! My license plate is "SACOBRA".

Ordered a Stage III from B&B in October 1999. I picked it up on a flat bed trailer and pickup truck on January 8, 2000. I barely had enough room for all the parts. At the time I was commuting to Oklahoma City so I only got to work on my car on weekends. At any rate it was completed and on the road by the end of April 2000. About 3000 miles the first year and a total of about 11,000 miles to date with about 1/3 of those miles on a track.
If I could do it again, I would have upgraded brakes, gauges, fuel cell, shocks, tires and wheels, and had my frame powder coated. But, that's for the next one....(don't let my wife see this last line). Clois |
