As was mine in Colorado.
I've been searching for a better adjective to describe the Shelby cars. CS called them "continuation" but I think "genuine" might be better. It's easier to describe it as still being manufactured by Shelby American, but a modern instantiation.
I read the court's opinion a long time ago and while the judge used the term "kit" I did not see a definition of the term. A lot of people use the term and when I ask them to define it they all think the car arrived in boxes and had to be fully assembled. Then try to describe "finished roller".
But for the 90th percentile a "It was built by Shelby just not in 1965" satisfied them. Usually people at a gas station are satisfied. People at a car show will drill deeper.
