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

Regrettably, it is the Shelby organization that committed the fraud, not the buyers of their product. One has to wonder about marketing tactics that beg the law to look the other way so cars could be sold as something they clearly were not. And this is not a case of not being able to say nice things about my old friend Carroll - it's simply stating the facts.

Seems Shelby is no stranger in figuring out ways to bilk customers out of their hard earned money. The csx continuation just being one example. If Kirkham sold row boats, Shelby would sell the same row boat but call it a dinghy and get thousands more for it telling his customers it's not a row boat lol. I would like to know more about the Shelby-McClusky barn yard find, what scam were those two up to with that one?
