Default Finally got some Pictures Posted

We have only been working on it about every other weekend when I come home from school. As of right now, electrical is done, suspension is done, dash is done, and some other small projects have been finished up. Next major step is to drop in the motor, time to say goodbye to that big hole .

What are "Sierra" Brakes?

Nice look. I bet you can not wait to not only fill the hole but to drive the car. It is worth all your efforts.

Thanks for all of the comments guys!

Satanpez,
Sierra is simply the company who made the caliper.

Love that paint Ikestaa! Your making me think of going solid. Get that bad boy on the road to the Fling. If you going; where are you staying. I'd like to meet the man behind the name!

Thumbs up

Looks GREAT Ikestaa!

BTW, I looked closely at the first picture - you may want to double check the manual - the seat position looks a little off.

That is one fine looking machine!

got snake,
My dad mentioned going back to the fling this summer with the new baby. He's pretty busy, so we will see what happens. Plus, I don't think he'll throw me the keys and tell me to have fun.

Hello ikestaa,

Looks terrific....The ERA car has all the looks, fit and finish that you could possibly want.

BTW I noticed that the rear license plate light does not have a mounting frame....Finishline sells one in aluminum and powdercoated black that allow the license plate to be mounted with out scratching that beautiful paint. Follow the link below to take a look at it.

http://www.cobraaccessories.com/ffhome.html

Quick..... drop it in, start it up and drive it away !!!!!!!!!

Tony R.

Thanks again for all of the compliments. The color is Porsche's Arena Red Metallic. They don't make it anymore, I believe they stopped using it in 2000, but it is still available.

Ike-
Your pics aren't bad, but they're not as good as the ones taken at ERA


Seeyaa-
Who is painting your car for you?? Mine should be ready to go to the painter in the next 3 weeks or so.
