A replica is a replica. When you have to sit down and argue about the body material thickness, the exact grade of leather, or the type of rivet used, then we get back to straining the gnat and swallowing the camel.
Put a picture of an original beside the picture of a new Kirkham, beside the picture of the "Cobra" with the VW engine and maybe all this will hit home. There are replicas......and there are kit cars.

You can call them anything you want, copies, reproductions, replicas, clones, tributes, kit cars, etc. I don't really care. It's all the same to me. Folks invent/use new adjectives to make themselves feel better. BUT, there aren't any exact copies. Period.
"More exact"? "More authentic"? That's some funny use of the English language. |
