Pics look great. Conn Custom did my car as well, and I couldn't be happier. Which blue is that, it looks very nice?

I've heard nothing but good things about Walt at Conn Custom. Your beauty is another feather in their cap.

SG, you have a very nice looking Cobra...-John

Thanks Fox&coolcobra.Hi Chaplin , the color is called Twilight Blue pearl and stripes are just Wimbledon White no pearl or metalflake added.Im looking into having that 3m invica shield added before she hits the road......hate to start seeing rock chips early in the game

Congratulations to your wonderful ERA, you chose a great color. Now its about four years ago that I received my ERA # 571.
About 100 ERA's in four years.
Have a great weekend
Regards, Walter

Hi Sal!
Boy, what a change from the raw fibreglass to the primer to the finished deep wet shine of your new paint job! Those guys shure can shoot some paint eh? I am glad you are happy with the job, that is the way it should be. Wait 'till we get on the roads togeather man! Ruummmpaaaaa!

Your color looks much like mine in general. Black looking in low light conditions. Tiny metal flake seen for the most part only in brite light or direct sunlight? Or is yours without the tiny flake?

I would suggest you start off with and stay with Zaino Brothers showcar polish right from day one.

Is the engine and bell housing and trannie over at ERA now? What kind of carb is on that monsta?

Just about 11 years ago, #375 rolled out of ERA so they are doing about 26 to 27 427 F/C cars a year on average.

JOEA: You are next man... what hue is you?

Hi james and Thanks

The car in person looks like a sheet of glass, Conn Custom does real nice work! I noticed under your profile that there is a couple of CSX's

You gotta send me some photos.Wish i lived a little closer so i could attend the party and get a chance to meet you.If the food is real good please send me any leftovers, for this Cobra project is killing me

Thanks for sharing the pics! Looks great! Now the really fun part of assembling everything. It's amazing how a car tranforms just by adding all of the parts

How many FIA's a year are ERA putting out?

GT40's?

Joe A: Silver is a real nice color on the Cobra. Bob in CT has a real nice silver Superformance. The silver really picks up an shows the curved lines of the car well IMHO.

James: Likewise I wish I could come to the distant (from me) party. You got to take some digital pics.. Are you getting an ERA as well?

Cheers
