A rare occurance
|
Spring is here, when a guy's thoughts turn to... aluminum.
|
Perhaps a sign of the times? Last time I checked our country/economy was still in the sh****r.
I also noticed that they all have a proper single roll-bar, too. |
...still waiting for that freezer pic Red. :)
I hope these guys didn't mortgage the house to buy a Cobra, always a bad idea even in a good economy. With the housing market down for the count, that could be one reason for the many sales. |
ERA 192 was for sale on Cobra Country but is just now listed as sold. I really liked this one too.

Somebody please buy #690 and thrash the hell out of it. The poor thing was completed in Winter 2006 and has less than 250 miles on it. It must be so depressed. A couple of good tire squeaks and a run down of a chebby may just turn around its lethargic life.
(by the way, it's also a darn good deal) |
The guy I bought my ERA from put about 450 miles on it in the three years he owned it. He noted it looked terrific sitting in the garage, like a nice sculpture or piece of art. For some, that's enough. For me? I couldn't wait to roast the tires and wake up that garage queen. :)

BTW, there's also a local ERA for sale asking $60,000. Not affliated.
