Yes. I have ordered an ERA 427 SC and expect delivery in late March of 2016. It was ordered as a roller and will be painted in Connecticut. Lykins Motorsports is building the engine for it, and will also supply the transmission, clutch, etc. It is a long wait but I'm sure it will be worth it!

Great to hear - fill us in on some additional details of your plan for the car. It's been too quiet around here lately.

It's going slower than I expected. The chassis is plumbed with brake lines, and the inner panels are mounted on the body. Some of the aluminum panels are going on the chassis. I asked Peter when it would go to the painter but he didn't tell me. I think I am currently looking at delivery in June but don't really know. Brent is waiting to assemble the engine until we get a little closer to Dday.
