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

Let me say it so you can understand. This time I'll try not to use sentences with too many words.

AC Motors may have done a racing Ace. I don't care who worked there. They didn't do anything with it.

Like I said, they could have mustered a team and talent, but didn't. So it falls off the map of relevancy.

Yours is all a "could have". Shelby is a "did". The former is speculation, the latter is history.
