Ah. That almost makes sense.
OTOH... Real[tm] Shelbys have this chassis number that's understood worldwide and logged in a special public place. Exactly how would I pass off my Kirkham as a Shelby, no matter what I did to it? It would either have a duplicate chassis number, easily researched, or a bogus one, ditto.
Makes no nevermind to me. The one thing I am unlikely to ever find in my garage is a CSX-anything... the originals keep receding from my financial reach (occasionally by a frustratingly small margin), and I have no interest in the continuations. So my interest is purely armchair.
