ERA #155 - 427 S/C on Ebay
Here is something you do not see too often.
Looks to be ERA #155 with a 427 Side oiler and loads of goodies.

Not my car, and I have nothing to do with it either, just posting this for those that may be interested in finding the proverbial hen's tooth.

I agree.

That car must have sat unassembled for a long time. I have ERA #122 and it was built in 1986...Not a very clean car either.

Gary-
I agree with you and I'm not biased at all. If I didn't have an ERA already, you would be shipping that car out east to me right now. Why are you selling it?

My ERA #154 was first delivered in 1986.
By the way, I wouldn't pay a dime over $35K for an ERA with a 427 S.O. bored 15 over with a 428 crank for a total cid of 454. But then again, what do I know.......
