Reference the recent law suit Shelby LOST to FFR. Shelby was denied a trademark because there was no significant difference between an FFR and a CSX. In the written opinion of the JUDGE, he answered the often asked question: Is it real?

It is not real,,, he declared Shelby's to be replicas, just like any other replica on the market.

I'm offended by the use of the word "Continuation" in light of the Judges written opinion. It's just another slick willy sales term for what has been declared, by the COURT, to be a Shelby replica.

Here we have a buyer "taken to the cleaners" for $700,000 or so. I think it's obvious just how easy it is to use misleading terms like "Not a replica" and "Continuation". It's time to stop the BS and call it what it is: A Shelby REPLICA, period, done, end of story.

Law suit, and dang it, drag Shelby himself into it, he started this crap!
