Questions on buiding a 427 Street Cobra replica

[strictlypersonl]

ERA
Pro - They offer a street car version with undercar exhaust, original appearing dash, body, etc. Built around IRS from the start. Plus they have a standard vent system. Comparably equipped to a Unique kit (limited slip, glove box dash, heater, etc) they appear to have a very slight price advantage - but it's hard to be sure. (They offer a lot of expensive aluminum panel options that I'm unsure as to how necessary they are)

All our previously optional aluminum is standard now.

Con - The body is bonded to the frame. I was planning to drive the car in gel coat or primer for awhile to sort it out and then pull the body later and paint it. Furthest away and probably the highest shipping cost. I haven't heard of there having any sales or discounts - so they may be the most expensive kit of the three.

We paint the body after mounting on the chassis. It can be done otherwise, but it's the only way to guarantee panel edge matching. Be aware that our standard kit is the Comp version. The Street Version will have some additional costs.
