1966 ERA video hello-a-gram
Hey everyone,
I don't know why it took me so long to join a forum for Cobras. I built an ERA Cobra with my dad and brother in 2001. It has a 428 S Cobra Jet (bored .030 over), Wilwood brakes, and pipes that are the loudest things ever. It isn't painted yet, it's rough around the edges, and I love it that way because I can drive it however I want without worrying too much. I LOVE his car.
I want to track it in the future, do a road trip with it, and eventually do an event like the Optima Street Car Challenge. I think it needs some mods, or perfecting, before I take those on though. The rotors are a little warped, the carb could be tuned better, although the way it is now, it shoots fireballs and sounds like dynamite; which is absolutely amazing. So I'll be cruising the threads looking for information on how to get it track-ready, without sacrificing any of the vintage look or feel.
I say "video hello-a-gram" because my car was picked to used on the new YouTube show, "Big Muscle." So they drove it up and down PCH and did donuts in it. It turned out good, but now we need new tires...
Anyway. These are the best cars ever. So, hello.
