Grumpy told me that he'd bought every option ERA had to offer except the Wilton wool carpets because Peter talked him out of it. I remember that Ron had lot of bolts and nuts to clean and tighten because Grumpy, being the engineer that he was, as well as having built the car back east, had used never seize on everything to prevent rust. Hope you are driving the snot out of it.  |
It's an exceptionally well built car, and yes, with every option except for the upgraded carpet. Only put about 500-600 miles on it this year, currently takes moving three cars to get one out....I'm working on a solution to that for early next year. Only time will tell.
