I saw Kenny's J-19 Breadwagon at his house with automatic trans-axle. It sounds very nice and perfectly done. I love the TBird rear lights

When ERA built my first GT40 had 15" wheels that limits the size of the brakes. The brakes were not power assisted and the engine was down in power (330ci). I ran at Road America and the Mustangs were faster and could go deep in the turns. My second ERA the engine was a 409 with 17" wheel...

In 1994 at Road America Peter Portante from ERA meet Peter Thorp from Safir. Thorp had 2 or 3 of his GT40 and told Portante that their was no interest on the cars. ERA had cars on order but production was slow and difficult since many were turnkeys. Thorp later sold his business I think...

The red MK-IV is J-10. The driver was Peter B Portante (son of ERA Peter Portante). He did a good job driving it back to the trailer parking. The sound of the 427 on a GT 40 is totally different of what you hear on a Cobra due to barrel of snake exhaust. J-10 raced for two years in CanAm...

J12 was one of two unnumbered spare tubs that never used by Ford/Kar Kraft. Ford inventory was sold and later finished by Brian Angliss in England. With the inventory they built J-11 using an original rear clip and J-12 with original front clip. The rear clip for J-12 from the cabin back does...

J-12 was sold today for $1.75M plus commissions at Amelia

My ERA GT was builder is over 6ft tall and fits with no problem without the gurney bubble. For heavy driver just add the removable steering wheel for easy in and out

In France you pay the ticket to the policeman. They had a book in every language and the penalty. Also radar detectors are not legal. I am returning today from Italy and every year I get several tickets thru the mail since Hertz provides all my information. Lets see how many this year.

Look at the "passenger" seat that does not have any padding and is smaller just to meet the 2 seater. I did not the photo that shows the luggage box and the tiny door to remove the spare tire without opening the rear clip

ERA built me a GT in the 90's using Corvette brakes on 15" wheels. Like the originals it lacked in braking compared to mother cars with bigger brakes and power assisted. It also lacked in power with only 330ci small block. The 2nd ERA was built 10 years later with bigger brakes, 17" wheels...

I got a copy today thru Amazon. Great book and explains why Kar-Kraft and its rise and fall.

two MK-IV tubs were used for CanAm J9 and J10. Both have been re-body to MK-IV. J10 was this week at Indy for the SAAC convention. J10 is the most raced J Car tub with its last race at Riverside in 1970

Clark, Chapman and Frey. The last to pass away was Don Frey

too much vodka damages the brain and good taste.

Not bad pricing and should be more comfortable that the original size car.

Yes, J10 is part owned by Peter Portante (ERA), James Holden and me. Teddy (ERA GT40 fabricator) is working on it. Now it the last stage.

I do not think is that easy. To watch Velocity over the Internet you need an account from your provider. Even free TV in England thru a VPN you need an account that ask your address in England. Is easy to try to download the shows if you can find the source.

I saw the first episode and did not like it. The next episodes it gets better. their chemistry together is funny. There is an episode that they built 3 cars (bones, clay and vegetation)
