Default Anyone sold an ERA lately?

As the economy slows, the heat turns up from "she who must be obeyed" to put the Cobra up for sale. Having gotten laid off last month makes the heat all that much higher.

Thought I'd at least try to give a cursory look to see what the market was like. So has anyone recently:
  • Sold a complete ERA 427 car, and if so how long did it take and how much?
  • Seen a recent listing for an ERA 427 car with asking price? - didn't see anything that appeared recent in CCs For Sale section.
  • Have any insight on what would be a reasonable price?
You can see the car and details in my profile, but the quick summary is:
  • ERA #414, completed circa 1996, registered as 1966 in GA. Red w, white stripes and number 7 meatballs painted on.
  • Engine rebuilt by both Keith Craft and Southern Automotive (don't ask!) approx 560 HP, and 580 torque at the flywheel.
  • 427 sideoiler (1965 block), Shelby aluminum heads, Edelbrock manifold, Demon 750 carb, Tremec 5spd road race tranny,
  • New pin drive wheels and tires (Firestones)
  • Ken Miles tribute aluminum drivers seat
  • SC style dash with Smith's gauges
  • 5 point harnesses, Halon fire system
  • Approx 5000 miles on the car, and about 1000 since engine rebuild (Just too lazy to go up and get the actual numbers right now)
Thanks for the help!
