Cash. If you don't want to dole out the whole enchalada, then you can build it in phases like I did. I bought the standard kit from ERA with some choice options, and then saved my dough until I had enough for the next phase. It takes a while, but after four years I was able to build my Cobra, paying cash all the way while staying underneath the spousal financial alarm system, and now I have a gorgeous black 289FIA to show for my efforts. I still have my phase build spreadsheet around somewhere, so PM me with your email address if you'd like a copy.
I opted for the 289FIA as I realized I wanted a small-block Cobra, and this helped keep some of the cost under control.
