The only ones that seem to take an interest are the Hot Rodders who like the way I frenched the door handles, but wonder why I didn't french the boot handle
As for answering the "what is it question", people generally get the deer in the headlight look about the time I say it came before the Cobra and had a 6 cylinder......
You're welcome to hang out with me anytime!

I don't consider a CSX continuation vehicle a kit, just like I don't consider any replica delivered in roller form complete minus motor and trans a kit. When someone ask "is it a kit?" they are most likely asking if the car was built by someone other than a manufacturer. Kind of like when they ask the question "is it real?" they are most likely asking is it original.

When I get asked the question "is it a kit?" I tell them it comes complete minus motor and trans, but I somtimes think I should just carry brochures around with me because it would be easier just to hand them one.
