I can see why there is so much enthusiasm about these cars, the driving experience is like no other car. I enjoyed the last 22 months since my initial deposit and sharing information on this forum. Wolfgang

Proper job, Wolf! Love the color the exhausts are acquiring.. Agree with the above statement about driving with the lights on.

Wow! Outstanding Car :)

+1 on driving with lights. At the least, parking lights. At first I didn't use them and had a few Mo-Rons pull out right in front of me.

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 :D .

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 :cool:

Nice ride! It took me a while to stop grinning all the time!

Sweeeeeeet!

Wolf,

Well Done and Congratulations !

I like what you have done with the interior, the aluminum in the door panel inserts and just the top of the transmission tunnel bare with the sides carpeted, never seen that combination done before, nice! :D

Did you get a top?

Have fun driving that fine looking machine !

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

Wolf,that is beautiful!

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 :cool:
