Instead of "real versus replica" this time, now the thread is morphing into component versus OEM and who sold what part and when. Who cares.
Besides Nedsel and CSX 3170, and maybe a few others, none of us own an OEM 1960's original Cobra, so who cares where the OEM parts were sourced from. It's irrelevant, but proceed if you want.

I think we all clearly understand what your opinion is just like we all clearly know what Evan's opinion is. Perhaps you could try something new like every time you see a thread where you want to state your same old opinion just make a single post about it, perhaps just a single sentence and stop there. No reiterating your opinion with multi paragraph responses to every post that does not agree with your opinion. You can continue to post on the thread, just do something short like insult owners of beige cars or tell us about the burrito you got from Taco Bell. Just try not to emulate Evan. It can get tiring.

... it wasn't a burrito, it was a quesalupa. Big difference, like the difference between a gorgeous, just right, beige and the old tired Viking Blue that everybody and his grandmother has.

Here's a suggestion for you. Use the ignore feature of this site, so you won't see my posts or don't click on the thread, once I've made any comments.
You're comparison of me to Evan really doesn't faze me one bit, if you wanted a reaction from me. I'm not insulted. And you're opinion of me or anything else is always welcome. Thank you for your contribution to the thread.
Maybe you find comparing me to Evan is an insult, but I don't. Evan did contribute to the fabric of this site. There are many people here who actually miss Evan and his argument that he owned a REAL Shelby Cobra. My original comment about the seller's car is centered around an OEM part for a replica. Have you reviewed the comments about the seller's car in his or her actual ad? I'll save you some time. They're not always good and it's the actual ad of the seller. We're over here on CC.
Simply put, a car was posted for discussion here. We're discussing the car. It's the Internet. If you don't like the discussion, then don't click on the thread or, alternatively, just use the ignore feature of this site and ignore my posts.
BTW, Evan was kicked off this site because he went too far with badgering or insulting Jamo. I've never done that and I can't remember ever being warned by a moderator. If I'm the reincarnation of Evan, then so be it. Occasionally, I do get positive feedback via PM's and folks using the "like" feature here. So I must not be all that terrible of a person.

I am not making an insult, just an observation. I never put Evan on ignore. I was not planning on putting you on ignore, well at least not yet anyway.
When I first came to club cobra I would have loved to get a car like Evan's, the most accurate replica possible, but not long after I got to hanging out here for a while I changed my mind and I actually much rather have a shiny polished Kirkham with an aluminum block engine, kind of like your car. I can understand both your argument and Evan's argument. If I see a thread about a shiny polished Kirkham or a thread about a very accurate build I enjoy both.
I guess I just thought of Evan as the one who could not stop finding things that he thought were wrong and replying to everyone of them. I thought that other people were just reacting to him or encouraging him to argue. In the absence of Evan I guess I am just seeing you in a new light.

And since you're speaking to me directly, I perceive your post as an insult. You may call it an observation, but I'm personally insulted to be compared with Evan. And I also think you're wrong.
I don't remember, but did my posts about cast iron vs. alloy blocks also help form your "observation" about me?
BTW, I don't seem to remember you posting on the CA SB100 threads, where I've posted answering questions, so just treat threads like this one, like one of those CA SB100 threads. Just ignore it.
Again, please just ignore my posts or don't click on threads like this where comments and opinions are sought and/or encouraged. They seem to upset you in some way.
Sorry, now I have to get on my assault air bike and burn some calories.

I put my two cents in on the cast iron vs. alloy block thread. I said I would still prefer an alloy block after hearing about that there are potential problems with alloy blocks that I was not aware of. So we seem to be of the same mindset there. However I did make this observation about that thread. Blykins started that thread. That seemed to be a thread where you liked replying to most posts that were counter to your opinion. Blykins publicly announced that he was unsubscribing to his thread after seemingly having had enough of it. Coincidence? Cause and effect? I don't know maybe he just needed to make a pie before a long drive to get to Thanksgiving dinner. I know I did. I ended up making two pecan pies. Surprisingly I forgot to put the sugar in the pies, but everyone liked them anyway.
