Having read most of the threads that Real1 took part in that dealt with the real versus original debate regarding his car, you can bet (being a lawyer) that he will word his replies in such a way that the potential buyer (if not well educated in the Cobra world) will think he is buying a historic vehicle.

We've all seen him duck-and-weave, dodge-and-deflect, when called on his claims, but all it takes is one, less than knowledgeable buyer, for him to make a sale.

I'm not saying he would ever misrepresent his car intentionally to a prospective buyer, but we all know how he is known for pushing definitions and gray areas to suit his needs.

I just hope he is very careful and honest with a prospective buyer, as you never know how vindictive a buyer, who believes he was misled by the seller, can be.

Once you get in the $250,000 range, you are dealing with a different class of buyer. One that just might make life miserable for anyone that dupes them. Evan is currently a big fish in a small pond (at least he thinks he is). But there are lots of bigger fish in much bigger ponds that just might take major offense if they purchased his car thinking it was something it wasn't.

Just sayin!
