As for ERAGT2077, I actually gave Peter a deposit for it in 1990...
Now, I realize that some would view that as rather a long wait. But the reality is, that I had ordered ERAGT2038 at the same time and this was originally to have been a MKII. In the interim, I finished 2038, sold it in 2001 and built my ERAFIA. I finally decided to build 2077 up as a right hand drive "ultimate version" of the car as raced in 1969, using the Gurney Eagle motor out of my FIA. So, it has actually been in the works for only a couple of years. Even that was drawn out, in part due to the custom things I wanted done and, too, as I had told Peter to have Teddy work on other customer's ERAGTs, those with less patience than I.
A long winded answer to a short question.
