Candidly I don't care what Mr. Comer says. He is one author. There are many others with a variety of differing opinions. Maybe we should watch was each "expert" has to say and change with the wind everytime writes an article.

In my mind and I believe in the majority of minds who are knowledgable SAAC is the definitive source and word on these cars.

You want to adopt Comers view point go right ahead if that makes you feel better. You were with Comer? You saw him talking to people at these events? What did they say? Who did he talk to? How many people did he talk to? He owns original Shelbys? In my mind that creates a question of bias as to how he looks at and writes about Continuation Series Cobras.

And these people on the ground that you assume he is talking to and seem to know what they are saying are plunking down near and over $100K for Shelbys when they could buy based on your view another "replica" for 1/3 to 1/2 that. That tells me something. Maybe it doesn't say anything to you but it does to me.

I am talking about the SAAC definition because as far as I am concerned the Registry is the Bible on these cars and defines what they are. You want to rest on Comers article on "replicas" go right ahead and if you think he sets the standard...by all means...think what you want.
