Waiting for car need a budget

[ERA 626]

Bob,
My name is Michael LaGrone. I put down a deposit on a ERA 427 SC about a month ago. My car should be ready in approx 12 months, but I would like to budjet for it so when should I call and go over all of my options with you or Peter? I would like to purchace almost if not all of the parts from you, I just think it is going to be easier that way instaed of searching for everything. Can I save some money if you just send me the parts and I assemble it? The rear end... what are my options? Do I need the race version from you or is just a standard jag rear with inboard brakes going to work okay? (purchaced from ERA) I don't plan on doing much racing but I might take a parade lape every now and then. I am building a 428FE (approx 500hp) that is going to be streetable but I do not want to be limited down the road if I decide to change my mind and put a stronger motor in it. I saw a superformance that was painted PPG royal blue, what do you think?

Mike,

The answers to your questions really should be resolved between you and Peter. I'm just the technical guy who is buried by stuff that has to be finished yesterday. Please give Peter a call. He's hard to get, but he does return calls eventually.
