Any ERA Slabside 289/302 Cars Available?
I have been considering ordering a Slabside 289/302 style Cobra. ERA is a great choice, but I would also consider a CSX 8000 car. Does anyone know of any cars that are available? I am not sure I want to go through the ordering process. Thanks,
Rich

I don't believe any builder approaches the fidelity and attention to detail David gives to finishing a Kirkham:

True statement however ERA vs Wagner car cost is large..
ERA probably 50-60k Wagner >115k. Granted there is a huge difference in authenticity.
Guess you get what you pay for.....

But he is also considering a CSX8000 car. Would a finished CSX8000 go for similar money to the Wagner car?

Mine is indeed for sale

But it is not 289/302 powered as the OP is apparently looking for.

ERA has only made a few to date.......
CSX8000 car would be glass and in the 75K range. They too are low volume...
Can try Panel Craft as Joe can make one. Still will be $75+ when done.
