So if you're putting in a Chevy, might as well go all the way with mud flaps and a 'coon tail.

I said this on another loop but I think it will fit right in here. To the Ford only in a Cobra crowd, the I want to live the dream crowd, the I have duplicated the correct number of rivets on my scoop crowd, I got the exact color as the team color of the championship season crowd, I have to have Goodyear on my tire crowd, I tracked down the company who made the windshield wipers from 1963 crowd and on and on. To this crowd a Chevy engine in a Cobra replica may be the kiss of death. But to the I am a car guy, I am a HotRod guy, to the it is not what you buy it is what you build guy, to the I want the best performance for my dollar guy, I want the best performance PERIOD guy, To the I am a Chevy guy, to the I want to able to buy parts at my local Advanced Auto guy, to the I am in Australia and GM is the best choice to get by government regulation guy. To all those guy's the Chevy in the Cobra replica is a BONUS.
