Welcome Dlang14,

I've had a great experience with ERA so far - and no doubts that the final product with be exceptional. Visit them and any other manufacturer that your considering.

55K for a completed ERA is probably close, depending on some of the fine points. The difference between a 428 (common) and a 427 side oiler (rare) alone could be $10K, pin drive wheels another couple K - the options are nearly endless. The amount of the work you do yourself may have a very significant impact.

Take the time to find out exactly what you want, gather info, talk to people - THEN plan and build your dream. Always keep in mind what you want it for too. Cobras (IMVHO) are purpose built - to race, show, pleasure drive or any combination of these. All of which affects how you decide to build it.

Best of Luck
