for Your
ERA Replica

An ERA 427 being readied for delivery.

 

For over 25 years, ERA has manufactured one of the most exacting replicas available to Cobra enthusiasts.  Below is a list of popular available options to view to help you ordering your ERA.

 

Running Gear

 

Rear Suspension, Brakes and Differential.
Both ERA 427 and FIA roadsters utilize a Jaguar-based differential and rear suspension with in-board rear disc brakes.  For those not interested in sourcing and rebuilding their own, fully rebuilt assemblies can be purchased from "the Works".  Those with competition in mind can also opt for the exceptional ERA designed fully adjustable rear suspension with disc brakes located outboard as with the original 427 and 289 Cobras.  The ERA assembly manual will help you match your final drive ratios with your choice of transmission for optimal street or competition performance.

Front Suspension / Brakes
For those with competition in mind, the standard front suspension and GM 11" inch rotors can be supplemented with either Wilwood or Sierra/JFZ competition front calipers and Spax coil-over shocks available from the "Works".
 

Wheels and Tires
Other than competition and S/C cars, original 427 Cobras were supplied with Sunburst Wheels which are currently not available from any source.  Most builders opt for replica competition-style pin-drive wheels available from Trigo, PS Engineering .  An inexpensive bolt-on look alike is also available from Team III.

For those seeking the original look, tires with the proper width and diameter to fill the wheel wells are also getting more difficult to obtain.
