I recently made the decision to purchase a SPF Mark I, after originally planning to buy an ERA Cobra kit for a winter project. But aside from the fact they are quoting 14 month delivery time, I don’t enjoy the wrenching as much as I used to. I raced formula cars with the SCCA, VARA and HSR, doing most of the car prep myself. The Ralt RT 5 Supervee and Lola T440 Formula Ford still occupy my garage, along with a C6 ZR 1 and C7 Z06 Corvette. I am old enough to have lived the disappointment of 64 & 65 Le Mans, through radio updates. And regaled in the 66, and especially the 67win, since my teenage hero, Dan Gurney, won. Following that up a week later with his marvelous win at Spa.
I’ve made most of the decisions regarding what options I want on the car, but I still have a few choices to make. I will be meeting with the engine shop, recommended by the dealer, the week after next. It sounds like there is more than enough collective wisdom and experience here to help resolve any issues I may encounter. I look forward to the experience.
