"Nice Fake!"
"Dear ClubCobra, Last night after work, I took my not-too-bad-looking NAF Cobra to the local In-n-Out Burger stand for a soda, and I had picked up a local "hottie" to give a ride to in the Cobra. As I was passing a late-model Lexus SUV, the yuppie-looking, mousse-haired male driver asked me with a slight lisp, "Aluminum or fiberglass?" I answered "Fiberglass!". He then said to me, "NICE FAKE", then he drove off. He sounded sincere about the "NICE" part, but now I am wondering if he really WAS sincere! What should I have done? Signed, Perplexed in California"

"NICE FAKE"
Wouldn't worry me at all....most of the "hotties" who get in my cars are fake anyways.... I already know that.

I know that guy. I have to meet him after hours at the clinic to give him Viagra samples in a brown bag, because he is too embarrassed to walk into the pharmacy with his Rx, because his girlfriend (not his wife) is the pharmacist's assistant.

Don't feel bad...
Last night a guy rolls up to me while I'm fueling up and asked if my car was a Stingray...
Time to thin the herd.......

Nice fake? Yea go ahead and roll up your windows on that Lexus and drive away in your sanitized fish bowl. Edley, you have something that less then 1% of the population (and right now me) will ever have, a very unique car and hobby. The guy who said that to you? Who knows but chances are he just goes home to his generic wife/girlfriend in his generic neighborhood and golf's (ok golfers whack me for that). So I wouldn't pay too much attention to it, most people are not mechanically inclined enough to even start one of these cars.

I'm afraid this snob in the Lexus has a similar affliction to people with or without Cobras who get their panties in a wad over what's "real" or "decent".
Shelby himself wanted a fiberglass body for the original. 'Nuff said.
BTW, who is NAF? Are they still in business?

SSS,
NAF stands for North American Fiberglas, they have been around for quite a while, look in some back issues of "Kit Car Magazine". I think they are still in business. I think they are/were based out of Arizona but don't remember for sure.

What is it with you guys? The Lexus driver takes the time to give someone an apparantly sincere compliment and you trash him.
I think the "snob" comment may be somewhat misdirected here.

I agree Bob, It is a fake, its just hard to admit it. When people say it, it gives off an air that the car is a POS. Which is ridiculous. It's all in the tone.
Isn't a Lexus a Toyota in sheeps clothing??

Websters definition of "fake" when used as a noun..
"anything or anyone not genuine; fraud, counterfeit."
In our culture, a disparaging word. I see his point.....
