I will add to Bill's list of suggestions to be sure to service the brakes. Every ERA I've purchased has needed brake work. I came really close to purchasing that car (only a few hours from me), but never got a chance to inspect it. I'm curious about your thoughts on what it may need or what you are planning to do. As with most sales descriptions (especially those on Cobra Country), they are all presented as needing nothing. In reality, there is usually nothing further from the truth (:

Bill also mentioned 6 PIN wheels. You likely just want to get 5 PIN wheels and adapters so you don't have to change your hubs. The Trigo ones will need additional machining to fit properly. Bob Lacy at Vintage Wheels knows the ERA specs and can set you up without fuss.

Yes, there are many easy things you can "undo" under that hood to make it more period proper. Should be fun along the way. That's a pretty car, and being painted by Connecticut Customs, I would expect the paint to be nice. Congratulations.
