So maybe what a CSX4000 series car is a "2007 1965 Shelby Cobra 427".
Ooops, sorry, off topic.

Well you think its silly, but if the exact definition fits...wear it.
My point is ... of course the original series are not considered replicas...but the literal definition can fit.
Rick Kopecs comments are consistent with the adopted SAAC definitions in the current Registry. Replicas have there own definition that clearly don't include the CSX continuation series which have their own definition as current production Cobras. The Continuation series are current production Cobras built to original 1965 specifications but are clearly not built in 1965.
RedBarchetta raises an interesting point. If Ford began making the '67 GT500 again down to every last detail would it be a replica (fake) of a '67 GT500? I say it would be a real current production GT500 built to '67 specs. It would be a real Ford. It would be a real GT500 built to 1967 specs by the original producer but built now. It would be a continuation of the series and not a replica as that term is commonly used today (i.e. fake GT500). It would have to be designated/marked so as to make clear it was not actually produced in 1967 maybe a GT500C (continuation) but it would be a real GT500 nevertheless. Not original but a real GT500 of the Continuation series.
Oh, and if Ford where able to build such a car (I wish) I bet there would be lines around the block of guys wanting to order them.

One problem...Ford never made the 67...Shelby did.
Colin covers that in his book.

Yes, I know but Ford made the car and Shelby modified it pre title. The point remains.
The information was covered in many other books long before Comers book. I actually don't have Comers new book. I'll have to pick it up.

Again, if it wasn't built in the 60's, it is a REPLICA of one that was. It's that simple. Damn, some people have thick heads.
OH,OH ,OH. I have a joke. What's the difference between a catfish and a lawyer??????
One is a scum eating bottom feeder, the other is a fish.

Hmmm...two things strike me as funny....
1. Evan is a lawyer
and
2. Evan does not even post on the SAAC Forum, magistrates of the bible he continually refers to.
Seem funny?

Actually, your wrong. Ford made the 67 Mustang Fastback and Shelby modified it pre title. If Comer says Shelby made the '67 without Ford maybe he needs to publish a correction.
So...heres back at you...

Ah, yes. Here comes the usual trash with the personal attacks. Can't discuss the issue intelligently so they revert to all they know how to do.
Well, Mr. Moderator?
