Welcome fellow newb. I, too, am planning for a 289 car....one day.
Good news, bad news.
The good news is that there are not so many builders of 289 cars, which narrows the field. ERA is outstanding. Can't go wrong, if you can wait. Unique makes a great car also. There is MUCH recent discusssion here on this forum about these two.
ERA vs Unique FIA
SPF now makes a roller 289 car, not available as kit. And if you have deep pockets, Kirkham I believe can accomodate you in an alloy bodied car.
Bad news, if you are looking for used, they are darned few and far between, compared to 427 cars.
And yes, Cobra Country is a great place to look, as well as the classifieds here.
Good luck, and let the hunt begin.
