Replica or a modern reproduction?

Gee, no one got the "tongue n' cheek" in my comment. Technically correct but offered tongue and cheek. This highlights why SAAC categories and applied definitions are accurate, correct and appropriate.

ERA2076: I can't disagree with a word you said. BTW is ERA really up to chassis 2076? I owned ERA515 which I now believe is owned by Peter P. Great car.

Buddyg: I don't even like Koolaid. If I'm drinking their "Koolaid" there's many many others drinking too based on membership, Registry Sales, attendance and SAAC events and conventions and many more utilizing SAAC as a world authority and reference. Seems like you are in the minority my friend in actuality.

No doubt that when any of these cars are sitting there most people recognize the shape as a Cobra and in the common generic sense a "cobra". True. It is quite apparent you very much want you car to be something it's not i.e. a genuine Cobra as opposed to a replica of one. Here' a little tip for you.... if you stand there while the average Joe is looking at your car as noted some will no doubt wonder whether it is really a Cobra (i.e. genuine) or not. My advice to you is to keep very quiet and don't say a word and maybe they will conclude it's a genuine Cobra cause thats about as close your replica will get to one without having to mislead them. Sorry to be nasty about it but your attitude begs for it.

Cheers.
