Redbird,
I'm just finishing up my ERA Cobra. I'm pretty mechanically inclinded and I chose to build my own 428 and to assemble the rearend for my project. I bought just the basic assembly for ERA and I really had absolutely no problems putting the car together. The manual is very well written and everything went together like a charm. I would suggest that you find someone else to build your engine for you and that you purchase the rearend assembly from ERA. Everything else you can do yourself if you're just a typical "wrench-turner." In fact, I found that all the major components went togther quickly and easily - things like assembling the front suspension, putting in the rearend, dropping in the engine, etc. The stuff that was much more difficult to do was to put in the carpet (not really hard but very time consuming), the door pockets, the seats, and that kind of thing. That type of thing is what I found really took a lot of time.
If you can follow a manual and your not afraid to pick up the phone and call ERA if you get stuck somewhere, then you can build one of their kits.
Good luck to you.
Chris
