ERA Team,

GREAT JOB!
I am looking forward to seeing this first hand. After a conversation with Peter P, I would like all to know that this car will be part of their line up moving forward. I am hoping to get to ERA in the next couple weeks to see this one first hand.

Great team effort and of course what a great car.............
Their really is a market for the SS cars.

I have been following the build as well with great interest and agree ERA did an outstanding job ... for lack of a better word ... Wow!

It's great to see a builder of ERA's caliber offer a car that pays tribute to the early cars and one that has the quality and attention to detail that ERA brings to the table.

I suspect this is just the first of many more to come !

One of our club members has one of these, the Light Blue one - Removed image due to mistaken identity. Although the car IS an ERA, it is a replica of the FIA car, not a 289 slabside. Sorry for the confusion

Default Nice.

Bob,
Nice Job. Looks great.

Was it a bear getting the exhaust tucked in - or did you not use the regular ERA Jag/IRS subframe setup?

While it is a 289 body style, it is an FIA version - not a slabside. And are you sure that's an ERA?

On the topic of this thread - kudos to ERA for yet another gorgeous car.

What a beautiful car!! The few real Cobras I saw "back in the day" were all street 289s. They looked like this new offering from ERA. This looks like a great new car.
