Absolutely gorgeous, Wolf! The ERA 289FIA is my dream Cobra, we'll just have to wait and see if it ever happens for me (I currently drive a 427 body style replica, it was something I could afford). I'm particularly fond of the appearance of your interior .

I'm not sure I like the shape of the ERA hood scoop, but I know that is something that can be adjusted.

There's just nothing quite like the lean 'n' mean look of a nicely done 289 Cobra, IMHO! To me the 427's look "bloated" in comparison...and I have already been "snake-bitten" by my sidepipes, so I really like what you've done with your exhaust, too!

Cheers from Dugly

I did not like at first either when I was deciding which model to go with. Only because was not like all the others. Almost went with no scoop. But it is a duplicate of the real FIA scoops. It grew on me, and I think it looks really good from the drivers seat how it is integrated to the hood.

Thanks for all the comments, Wolf

I see what you mean, Wolf...here's a photo from a different thread, a SPF 289 model, I see the same profile to the scoop:

I gotta admit, it's sorta growing on me, too!

Cheers, Dugly
