Everything looks great in pics, but I will never buy another car without putting my eyeballs on it. Flying to to the West coast to see ONE Cobra?
I would not have built a black car, as nice as the last few were in black.

I am willing to travel, but not that far for a car that is far from a color or options I would pick. Additionally, If the car is the color and setup I specked out with Peter, I will travel further. There is so many variants that have been built, everyone has a vision of their favorite. So there is a wide range of differences in evey build.

I believe there is an ERA on the East Coast, closer to me. If I am patient. Most of the collectable cars I have purchased have usually been word of mouth or forums such as this. That has worked best for specialty cars for me.
Perhaps posting exactly what you are looking for, so as to not waste others time, might be a better solution.

Color combination desired
Street vs comp dash
Options
etc
