Default Congrats!

IWC, finally got it, great!

Yes, the fun begins Good to see another ERA being built in TX! Lots more fun than just buying a finished one

See you on the road soon Don't miss the annual TX rally in Austin in March! We have more fun than the law allows ...

Thanks Sam! I don't have a good idea how long it'll take.. I'll probably work on it every weekend and some week nights. It would be nice to make the March rally!

Default You're Close!

Well done, IWC, not too much left to get to a roller. I took a week off work when my roller arrived and had a few friends help and got it drivable in 11 days <pant, pant> Left the interior bare for months BTW, the panel is pretty easy, ERA has already terminated all the wire ends. Make sure that big red high amp connector snaps together completely! Complete elec failure otherwise.

You coming to Austin next week? I'll give you a ride

Sam

Default I was impressed how complete the car was upon

delivery. I've only worked on it a handful of weekends. As I get closer to finishing I suspect I'll work on it after work and take a few days off from work to finish it off... Thanks for the ride offer but I want to cruise into Austin in the FIA not my pickup

Congrats, to your wonderful ERA !

I think the only thing you need are new Halibrand Magnesium wheels

Good luck with your FIA! Take your time, do things right, and enjoy the build.
Any questions call ERA, their customer service is second to none!
