[REAL 1]

Here we go again. Oey vey.

"CSX owners are the greatest offenders" .....Really Patrick? And from where does your empirical data come from? Would love to review it. They certainly do not offend if they say it's a real Cobra. The question is whether there is there some further moral imperative to go further and say it is of the Continuation series. You can debate that all day.

As many here can appreciate its very hard to go through the entire history of original vs. continuation series verses completions series blah, blah blah when I have the average Joe approach at the gas station and ask the usual question "is it real?". I give them the answer SAAC tells us from the Registry.

My answer is "Yes, its a real Shelby Cobra but not an original. It's a continuation series". That I believe satisfies the question truthfully and fully knowing many likely are really asking is it original. Today many know what a Continuation series Cobra is but some don't. If I have time and am engaged further I explain what they are. If not I don't and don't care and go about my business having given a truthful answer. Whether they understand it is their problem.

There.
