Don't do it! ERA/SPF cars were built to be clones & resale reflects that a little more than many Replicas. If you are really going to spend the extra $$$ to get one of these wonderful cars please do it right! After all don't you want people to ask you if its real? But really, it's not about being a chevy guy or a ford guy. Personally I have been a chevy guy most of my life & have access to chevy parts more than I do Ford & I am also fairly young & can't afford to do this all at once. I am going to take my time in order to make my car a clone. I want people to see my car sitting with the hood open &/or rolling down the road & I want them to wonder, is it real? Not because I need that satisfaction, because I don't see any sense in spending this kind of money on a car that isn't true to the Legend. That is why I am spending the extra money to get an ERA . One last note. How many times have we all said that we weren't ever going to sell something & ended up doing so to get something different? I beg of you! Do it with an appropriate ford block!
