Her name is Janet and I have been many times at ERA and never meet her. I am glad you enjoyed your visit to ERA. You will not see many ERA ads. I own 2 ERA cars (Cobra and GT). I have owned two other ERA Cars which make me a 4X offender. The GT is Gulf Color and its home is at ERA Hobby...

The replica car business is not easy due to severe competition from low cost, low wages and companies with goverment help. The investment that a company must make to build a product in relative low volume is difficult to recover and make a profit. I hope that RF recovers so you and others can...

Do not cry you car will be finish soon so you can push it around.

Nice shots. I have not seen the car that clean. Mafia (aka Peter Portante) told me that a customer call him that the winning Lemans GT40 was at a car show in Hartford. He did not read the large ERA logo on the windshield.

I have to admit that I forgot about the noise issue at Lime Rock. Snow you know I check the weather before getting in the plane.

The 2006 schedule for the PDA driving school is available at their site. http://pdadrivingschool.com/schedules/ I am hoping for the first event at Lime Rock to take my ERA GT

Oliver: My first ERA GT was a street car with Air etc. I did run the car at several events during my ownership. My second ERA GT was built for track only (no registration, no air, no carpet) and this year we played at Poconos and the Glen with the PDA. It is hard for me to practice since the...

Hershal so it would less formal. What I said "The wages is Australia is about 1/3 of the US" and you quoted the exchange rate. If you do a search on the web you will find the wages in Australia are low compared to the US. I use the engineer sample since I am an engineer and the topic is...

Hello Mr. Byrd: You have a few errors on your comment: 1. The Exchange for a US Dollar is 1.37 AU. The wages in Australia an Engineer Average is $30K Aus. Dollar. Factor the exchange and you can not get an engineer in the US for $20K. Property in Australia is Cheap. They are the sixe of...

Hi Ron: I quality and craftmanship could be equal but the detail and exactness sets the ERA apart. The RF is made in Australia and the chassis is frame tube. The wages is Australia is about 1/3 of the US so your labor cost, property is much less than in the US. EPA, labor laws makes things...

Ron my first ERA was one of the first to have the Gulf fenders and radiator cover. ERA makes changes on their car to offer more options on the car to make it closer to the real 40. The new tub is stainless steel and the foot pedal are adjustable. Better and bigger brakes are available. Peter...

Like yoy said ERA makes a fabulously accurate and well engineered Cobra and the ERA GT is fabulously accurate and well engineer. I have own 2 Cobras and 2 GT from ERA. The cost of ERA is higher but that is the price for quality and craftmanship.

The current issue of Automobile Magazine has the new Z06 corvette vs the Ford GT. The new corvette ate the gt at 1/3 the price. I have run with the old Z06 on the track and they were no match for my ERA GT with bad drivers on each cars. But the new has 100HP and better in everything. I...

No Puerto Rican F1 driver but no USA either. Lets see if you put your new GT40 on the track now to see how fast are you going to be. The last one ran many miles in a Trailer.

Ken Miles was almost 40 years ago. Miles also drove the Cabras which is also a difficult car to drive. The Porsche GT3 is modern GT car with all the power assisted that could you need. The GT40 is a vintage car and should be compared to its era and not todays cars.

The GT40 is not an easy car to drive. Original cars have bad brakes with no Power Assisted, Hard to drive (no power steering) and the ZF shifter is a pain to shift. The aero of the gt40 is not good and will suffer lift at high speed. You can watch John Brice video at the Glen and his encounter...

I am in the process of making the complicated descision that all of you have made in picking a replica. My criteria is as follows: 1.Originality 2.Best construction 3.Ease and fit of parts in build. 4.Best build support. 5.Price (best dollar value not cheapest) 6.Most satisfying upon completion...
