I was an impressionable young lad in 1968 when I saw my first GT500. I never forgot that car. I've owned two GT500's, a 1969 and my favorite, a 1967 which I had to sell due to divorce in 2001. With the prices the way they are on these cars now I know I'll probably never own another one but my ERA 427 replica gets me as close as I can. I hope someday to be able to afford a continuation CSX but until that time my ERA will keep my dream alive. Thanks Carroll, you've inspired more people than you could ever realize.
