Not only will you be able to witness in person and photograph much of your car construction (depending on how much time you have), you'll also get to see Peter 'On Stage', as he is a character to be seen and heard.
Once you get to know Doug and Rob, they will let you wander around and show you how they assemble the cars. I wonder if any other shop lets you have the run of the place?
The year will go by fast and before you know it you'll have your car (will it be a 'turn-key'?). Good luck and keep up posted.
Sorry that we missed each other, it would have been good to meet you. I only wish I lived closer to ERA!

Yes, I'm getting a turn-key car. My original plan (before I registered here on the forum) was to do a kit car, but my wife talked me into having them do it, as I really kinda have a full plate as it is.

When they actually start building a car, do they work on it constantly, or do they kind of work on each car in batches? I guess my question has to do with the amount of progress to expect in a given time frame. Just trying to give some thought to the intervals for visiting the shop, given that it's about a 3 hour ride

Ray.
