When you see it, we want audio! Those are the definition of beautiful noise

My God though, I wouldn't want to pull valve covers, or replace head or exhaust manifold gaskets

That was Wayne's car.

My buddy will keep the car in California for a while. Hopefully , he'll bring it up to our track to show it off to the members.

Just read Mike's comment on BaT, "Thanks for the well wishes re the Cammer, it will be hanging out at Cars & Coffee in La Quinta, California"

That was Wayne's car.

Before Wayne it belonged to the guy who owns ERA. I assume it’s probably the best built ERA in existence.

I thought it would have commanded more. If it was white I’d have been tempted to bid. I’m in search of a white one without the roll bars. Preferable an aluminum Kirkham.

187 buys an aluminum CSX continuation car.

I guess the Wayne Carini factor helped.

Nice car and several bidders.

The cammer engine had a little bit to do with the value.

A white cobra is pretty rare.
How about raw aluminum with polished stripes?

I think the cammer was to blame for the price.

Yes, but that one came with the manual
Damn, they've shot up the past few years. Wasn't too long ago a set of complete heads, drives and chains showed up on CL in Tucson. 5 years ago maybe? They were old and dusty. Can't remember for sure, but seems to me they were asking between 6 and 8k?
