Made a trip up to ERA to visit #775 as she is close to making the voyage to her new home and wanted to share some pics:

First off I have to say that I think I'm numb with the thought that she is done and will be in my possession shortly. Peter of course is always a gracious host and had #775 ready for me to inspect. We went over my checklist and everything was done perfectly. I'm a nitpicker and have found in general that I have to 'settle' when having work done by others, but not at ERA. #775 came out BETTER than I had expected - I couldn't find anything wrong at all, everything is done in such a neat fashion and all the parts fit together perfectly. I really can't wait until she makes the journey to her new home.

Of course I did take some pictures of the other cars in the shop, including those belonging to Mooch and tkb289 (yours was covered):

For anyone that may be on the fence about getting an ERA, I really have to say it has been an enjoyable experience.

Ray,

Your car looks awesome and the best part is, soon to be in your garage, bet you can't wait! Then the fun really begins, being able to drive your dream :D

Great photos, thanks for the shots of 2136, hopefully it will soon be out of the bag, and into assembly. Looks like Mooch's car is getting is pretty close to being done. From what I can see in the photos, it looks like all it needs is the rear suspension assembly and some interior work to be completed, looking good Mooch. There sure are a lot of cars, Peter and crew must be as busy as ever!

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy...

ERA really has them packed in there. Peter was telling me that he can't fit them all in the final assembly building, so has some over at the adjacent bldg.

One other thing that I would like to add; everyone on this board has been quite helpful to me in selecting the right manufacturer and also helping me to make the right choices in outfitting the car. I really want to say THANK YOU to everyone that has responded to my never ending list of questions.

Ray, your car looks great... so how did it sound? It's a little crazy at home, as I'm getting the garage ready for the arrival of #783.

By the way, are those Avons on your car?

Thanks again for the pictures.

Mooch

Had a great low pitched sound, love the way the engine sounded. Funny you mentioned about getting the garage ready, I've been doing the same thing!

Yes I did go with the Avons.
