Yup.
Even after he left, there's countless posts about him.
Soooo, who exactly has the problem?

I think he left a long trail of memories that some folks just don't forget.

True, we're like a bunch of girls gossiping about high maintenance Mary Jane and if she will ever find the right guy after being booted from the clique. But to be fair, based on the derailing of your thread "Personalized Plates" on that other site I would say she still has some issues

Nice car...hey, I was never one much for personalized plates, but I bet "CSX4206" is open here in Missouri. Would look good on my Backdraft replica...

I'm sure that would twist Evan up a bit...but you go with that and let us know when you receive the summons or injucntion from his law firm!

I have warm feelings for "rsimoes" too and his crazy postings and questions. And there was that last thread where he ranted against the rest of us. A long time ago, he built a Kirkham with everything under the sun for roughly $127,000 and then sold it about a month later for $88,000 when he decided the car wasn't right for him.
How about Ernie? What did own, an ERA was it? How about PowerSurge?
What about "jdog"? Do you guys remember he built/bought a black fiberglass CSX4000 and then ultimately sold it and left CC?
Do you guys remember the Nissan Leaf owner who lived in New York, I think Manhattan, and took trips to Petco to pick up kitty litter on the subway? "NYG" or something along those lines. He had some "great" posts, where he offered literally nothing to this site, but would post some odd threads unrelated to virtually anything we discuss here. He never owned a Cobra and never will.  
We have fond memories for all who pass thru, including RealOne. You guys remember how he would admit his Shelby was a replica in one post, then in his next post deny it was a replica and spend the next 25 pages posting dead links to information that was a decade out of date. And stating that it was SAAC's position today.
You guys remember he would attack Ned The Registrar, Curator and Keeper of All Things Shelby/AC Cobra? Fond memories. Ahh, yes, those were the good old days.

I have had many clients that insist on "perfect" in the construction biz and don't care about cost. I try to tell them that there is no such thing. They don't care and it has cost me a lot of $$ over the years fighting about it. "Perfect"...well, that's a word.

Uhhh, and I recall you showed him how to take the loss as a full credit against his taxes owed for that year, right? That's why bernica needs you.

I don't intend to lose a dime on my car and it's not for sale (sh_t, I sound like Evan!), so I am in no need for tax write off advice, at least as the car goes.

Tinman contacted me some time after he left this forum (which was the result of some rather tasteless jokes surrounding the unfortunate incident) and he had decided to keep his car. I assume he still has it.

My list of memories wasn't exhaustive by any means, but the greater point is that we've had many long threads about those former Cobra owners who have left this site, probably mostly because of Patrick's snooze-fest "How To" Series. I especially "loved" the one about painting his Trigo wheels the same Desert Storm Hummer Beige that he painted his ERA body.
RealOne is just another former member who left, er, I mean, was ceremoniously dismissed from this site.

Just FYI, NYG is alive and well and you agreed with him on this thread

Personally I think NYG adds a little color to the forum, his posts seem to help promote the self serving biases we all have and hold so dear lol. Or, in the case of our child members, a chance to cut lose with a full blown temper tantrum

QUOTE]
i know i will never own a Cobra. won't lose sleep, never a bucket list, never met carroll shelby, wasn't born in the 50s or 60s, too young for vietnam, never had a cobra poster as a kid, never bought into cobra hype or lies.
now if you're taking hot rod cars that poses as a Cobra, sure, it's on my car list but its not pressing.. it was before.. not now.. many other hobbies...just looked at gordon parks gelatin photos for sale, private seller.. really want but I might have to cut back from Iams dog food to generic brand after purchase.
i got time for hot rod cobras. plenty out there... more sellers than buyers.. its just a hotrod... not losing sleep or anxiety... but I have come to a conclusion i really like an alloy body cobra. fiberglass makes me itch. it's a mental thing. no matter how shiny the paint I will know it's still fiberglass.. so that changed.. i'd prefer a hot rod cobra in alloy body.. and I can buy a cobra badge and glue to the dashboard.. in the end, badges do matter  )
rumor is Evan(real1) is buy a gt3? anybody here actually know why he is switching? he bled shelby and registry and now, he's quitting the cobra world ? that's sad... he packed up and left.. and yall still talking about him...

I kicked tires on an autokraft cobra with a mustang engine. the seller asked for too much; he also thought his cobra was real.
anyways, this thread is about real1(evan) selling his cobra. best of luck, sir! get top dollar. psst, here's a tip. forget gt3! That's old news.
get a 2017 911R. and u will be the envy at every car show, PCA event, grown men will melt & beg for rides. the car crowd will crown u King! ego stroked. deja vu.
