Thanks for the responses. I should have mentioned more of what I had in mind for the car.
I don't really plan on racing the car. More of a cruiser. I might be interested in going to a driving school with it at some point and turning a few laps, but nothing serious or frequent.
I do want the car to be close to an authenticl, but it doesnt need to be exact. I am going with an FE motor. which one depends on how the bank account looks when the time comes. 427 SO would be super cool to have, but nothing wrong with a stout 428 if I need to save some.
Given that I don't plan on spending much time on the track is the ERA rear still worth considering? I had written it off in my head, but I'm certainly open to re-evaluating.
I'm going to go with the 6pin wheels. Being in California I don't plan on a top.
I was torn between going with one of the ERA recommended paint shops and having it done local. Only because i would have enjoyed being able to see the progress, and take pictures along the way. At the same time all of the cars ive seen painted by the subcontractors look magnificant. I think i'll take that advice and have it painted before its shipped out west. Now if only I knew what color
Oh and Foothills Gary no we havent been to Bonfonte yet, my wife and I moved to Gilroy from San Jose about 8 months ago. Its on my list of honeydo's that I havent done yet
