I got my ERA for $35K, with the 427 side oiler I consider that an excellent buy.
BUT, what a nightmare it would have been for someone who doesn't do their own work. First the clutch went out and then I lost the camshaft. All shortly after purchase, I could have put in just a cam and lifters but decided to rebuild the entire engine\trans.
Now I just finished new gauges, new wiring harness, worked on the rear end. I'm not in to deep on dollars, but in DEEP on "labor"! But what the heck, I don't mind working for 32 cents an hour when I'm having fun.
