So I finally took delivery on Wed night. It took a few friends (and one of their wrestler sons) to unload the car, suspension, and boxes, and get them in the garage. I spent several hours looking at the car and through the boxes, and I am impressed with the quality of the ERA kit, and the paint job by Connecticut Custom Cars. I'm also very happy with my choices and not regretting any one of them so far. The one problem I had, though, is there were probably 30 scuffs and minor scratches on the car. I *think* I got most of them out with 3M Imperial Hand Glaze and about 3 hours worth of work. They are all on the surface, so they should be ok, but I didn't expect this. Anyway, I will start to bond the engine bay panels this weekend and post some pix when I get a chance.
