[quote=Tutosnake;1225943]I echo that. BTW I enjoy the same view as Mark IV. As a CSX buyer, all the research I did before ordering my car led me to believe that unless you legally created two or more completely distinct entities to handle the affair, the AD shall not finish the car. After all, in the SAI case, didn't it use be that way? Does anybody knows the facts about that? Why did SAI steered away from allowing the AD's to finish the cars they sold?

We were always advised by SAI (CSBI) legal to have a seperate selling ententy (component/roller car) and a seperate servicing/parts/ company.

I do not know the reason for this but we complied with their across the board demand (on all factory-authorized Shelby Cobra dealerships)

I did ask CS before he passed why SAI does not install the drive-trains and he gave me two answers

1) Feds will not allow that to happen as the car is considered a 1965 on the MSO

2) He did not want the liability of the install and what might go wrong in the hear-after with the car

I do not know if you all know but SAI puts a six month, six thounds mile warranty on the CSX cars BUT the warranty starts the day I pick the car up at the SAI factory NOT the day the customer receives the car!! That is a policy that has always irked me

I think it has to do with federal law and regs that if the car is built all in one location with drive train it will have to meet current DOT and NHSTA safety and emissions.

You didn't have theses issues in 1965.
