Yet, with each one you or I buy, you take a chance that there may be something wrong with the car, and that is why the car is being sold in the first place. It's a gamble few are willing to take, preferring to sit back and watch others take those chances. Bill S. Bill S. |

That's not my post (it's been edited) and not even in the correct thread!! |
alve and well
Good evenng too all. Tonight I was called by a friend, a frequest poster and viewer of this forum, who alerts me of posts that might be of interest to me. It has taken quite some time for me to read through this entire thread. I wanted to respond immediately, in a short note, here now, and then prepare a formal and complete response. I have seen hostile exchanges in this thread and several others that I read in the past. I really don't know and of your real names or your CC names. Before anyone jumps all over me, and says who the he-- is this jerk as alluded to above, I suggest they fine a friend's copy of the Spring 2013 SAAC Shelby American magazine online, by a copy of the 2013 annual, or become a member of SAAC. You can read the story of my car and my life with it the THE PARTS. will continue immediately

I suggest they read a friend's copy of the Spring 2013 SAAC Shelby American magazine online, by a copy of the 2013 annual, or become a member of SAAC. and read the story about my car, my life and my parts. I have been called many thngs by many Cobra guys through the years. Mostly a good friend and a little nuts. I have known the principle people for over 40 years. Mike McClusey has called me "The premier original 427 Cobra parts hoarder in the world." We held hands for 40 years during the restoration of my car. Many many times we discussed parts and he said you'll never find that, forget about it. I said I have 18 of them. I knew Ned when he lived in NJ and wanted Geoff Howard to repaint the engine block in one of his early SC's wthout taking the engine out from the chassis. Remember that Ned ? continued

If you have information to share...share with sufficient identification for folks to be able to weigh it...rather than tell folks to look elsewhere. And yes, I'm already aware of who you appear to be. Do it for the others here if you want them to know. Thanks |
To be clear and to make sure you understand where I'm coming from. Over the past year, a few folks have come on, celebrities in their own minds, playing games with their identities and sharing little to allow members here to weigh their credibility. Many threads were closed.
I have no patience whatsoever for any of that anymore...and I truly could care less who the person is. So, no games, no charades. That's it...no multiple tries either. Your ID has already been alluded to in this thread, so there's no reason to be subtle. I personally think you would add to information here that members would appreciate, but I'm not going to sit here and monitor 24/7...these days, I stop the problems before they start. If you think I'm being unfair...oh well, I can live with that. |

I was a member of SOA, Shelby Owner's Association in the early 70's before there was even a SAAC. I was a member of the first Cobra club, in Michigan, Bruce Jodar president. Rick said he was still around. Still have the club T shirt. On and On. I was the SAAC early convention concours 427 cobra judge, where I created a 10,000 points judging module, yes 10,000 points considering both condition and originality, trying to standardize the judging against an imaginary perfect car. was asked to resign as I was deemed to picky. People were not ready for this type of scrutiny. continued

So, would you ever buy one of these OEM part cars, huh???

Take a day off and think about it. Like I said...no patience. |
For the friend of this person...don't bore me with a PM...talk to the poster about how to reemerge here. It's just a one day suspension...a time out if you will. The poster's posts (all two dozen of them over half a decade) indicate this same hide and seek methodology. Reminds me of the robber baron's offspring from last year that was the most interesting man in the world.
No patience. |

Nice story, but as JAMO said folks here have grown leery of stories without some substance and credibility. We have seen / heard many stories here that just don't pan out or turn out to be nothing more than someone trying to advance their own agenda and distract from the purpose of this site. Of course, we all would like to believe it but name dropping is easy. Solid facts would be nice. Some pics would be nice too. So would being able to have a few seasoned members here step up and vouch for you. Good luck! |
