Ralphy: I took aim at Evan because, well let's face i,t he can present as a bully... BUT truth is depending on perspective, either side of this coin is correct.

PaulF pretty much summed it up best when he said this:

Even those that don't have a 1960s Cobra but have a Shelby have a chip on their shoulder because they go through such great lengths to argue that theirs is a continuation Cobra and the registry says so.

Guess what? NO ONE ASKING THE QUESTION CARES. Continuation, replica, kit, custom, no one cares. It's not an original. They walk away disappointed and you feel bad because you couldn't say yes.

Question: Is it original?
Answer: No.
BUT the issue I have is, why the insecurity on either side of this fence?
It is what it is... Nothing more, nothing less.

Hence forth and enjoy

Just saying - REPLICA (or variant of...) is NOT a dirty word.



Ps: The buzzer went fellas... So I'm going to go play with my real/counterfeit/dune buggy cobra
