Good answer. My Factory Five Coupe is no closer to being like an original than my Roadster was. As I said, I never say anything bad about anyone's cars, but the ones that go around pointing out all the things wrong with other peoples cars are for the most part driving replicas with fiberglass bodies and huge engines. As for old, I still have memories of my Fred Flintstone type car with the feet used for brakes . And I think most of the well built replicas, no matter which brand are for the most part safer and better than the originals.

I'm reminded of a joke where a man arrives at a brothel. While standing naked in front of the young lady the lady made comment about the mans diminutive appendage. She asked, "who do you plan to please with that? The man replied-------ME!
