Why does every thread here devolve into a "Real" vs. "Replica" argument?

REAL1 has been advising that we look in the registry. Can someone with a registry post the name of the owner of CSX4206?

That's easy. Its my wife. She owns everything including me.

I wonder if my old Dodge Omni GLH-S is listed in the SAAC book? It is a real Shelby.

That's true. However, neither do you.

I get to drive it if I'm a good boy.

What you can't say is I'm a hypocrite. I expected to see some attrition as this war raged on, sorry to see you go but understand

Sheesh, just when the subject's posts proved to be consistent with known axioms, a new boundary condition pops up requiring a re-proof of the underlying hypothesis.

Back to the drawing board ...

Turn the crank, the wife's monkey dances.

When does the next SAAC book come out???

[Joe's Garage]

Well done RodKnock ...

[REAL 1]

OMG.

If you think so.

Facts, law, Registry. Can't get around them.

Keep punch'n though.

I check back in later for a laugh. This is fun!

Facts, Fraud, Ned The Curator, Posting 8+ year old SAAC Website Statement That Has Been Completely Revised But Not Disclosing It, Logic, "Certain Liberties Were Taken With The Registry" and "Let's Call A Spade A Spade."

This is really fun too!

I'll check back in later as well.

- Public Service Announcement -

It has come to our attention that at least one member is impersonating being a CSX4000 owner. Sources further describe the imposter as a "chamois toting lackey" who just enjoys shinning his spouse's CSX. So members beware, know who you are posting to. Further information will be provided as it becomes available.

- This concludes the Public Service Announcement -

Says the guy who own a Cobra replica of any kind, or at least won't confirm for us what he does or doesn't own. Do statements like this really make you feel superior in some way?

That advances your cause now doesn't it? Actually, its just as convincing as all the rest of the flotsam and jetsam advanced by your sour grapes gang

As far as our "quaint little community", I would hardly use such a description to describe this place. Apparently you still struggle with word definitions like the rest of your "gang". Secondly, as far as me being an "outsider" again, you are apparently still lost and confused.

I've been around these cars for nearly 20 years now. Owned my Shelby for nearly 15 years. An ERA before that and an Excalibur before that. Likely been around these cars way before you and likely will be a Cobra enthusiast and owner long after you are a distant unpleasant memory. Seen a lot of .....well "guys" like you come and go.

In fact, I'd wager you will never even finish your fake Cobra sitting in a box. By the way, as noted you never even posted up pics. Who built the chassis? Come on tell us. Don't be embarrassed.

By the way do you even own a Registry?. It's clear a lot of the sour grape boys soiling their pants over this subject don't. Have you even read any part of it? Nah. Never mind. I can tell you haven't.

You know, that is really grasping at straws.

If directed at Real 1, the details of who in the family's name is on the title is not relevant to this discussion and you know that.

If directed at me, please explain once again how present ownership is relevant?

So, how about starting a topic over in the scratch builder's subforum about your car? We'd love to see the progress.

Reply Q1: Oh, I own a replica, no doubt about it. It's all in big pieces on the garage floor just like yours was once. I look forward to the day I can register it as a replica in my state just as you registered your replica in VA. I don't think my state has a comments block where they type in Replica, but it will no doubt be identified as such IAW that that state's regs.

Reply Q2: I take no pleasure in making such Public Service Announcements, it saddens the heart to see our quaint little community corrupted by morally depraved outsiders.

Nope, mine was never in pieces on the garage floor. It came fully assembled minus drivetrain from Shelby. By the time it was in my garage the first time it had the drivetrain installed.

Fair enough, I enjoy the "hands on" experience so planned my build accordingly. I just hope my state's replica registration process goes as smoothly as yours did in VA.
