Continuation CSX a "Kit car"?

[jmimac351]

You know, now that I think of Boss 302 mustangs and those are worth a lot of money, suddenly I feel much better about my '92 Mustang LX coupe since it's also "real". Isn't that the bottom line here? The subtle (and sometimes not) references to the tremendous value of "original" cobras and how that must have some bearing on what was made for me just recently and; therefore, how mine is better than yours and I need to make sure you understand that? The reason some CSX guys catch grief is because they are constantly trying to oversell and people see right thru it. "No Fake", "Real 1", etc.

They are beautiful cars and it's a shame their owners can't just let them stand on their own merit. It's like the overzealous parent at the baseball game. They ain't the same thing and don't tell me that's not what you want the uniformed observer to believe.

When the market says they are the same, then everyone will recognize the value and prominence you wish they had. Otherwise, just try to enjoy the car.

For crying out loud. Time to make some coffee.

Why does it have to be an overzealous parent. Can't we just be proud parents of what our cars are?

I don't try to oversell anything. My car is a real Shelby Cobra, and I am proud to display such. Doesn't mean I think of myself or my car as better than anyone else. My car is what it is and I am proud of that. If other people don't agree, too bad.

Although you are possibly oblivious to this fact, you just became Evan's new poster child regarding blindside flaming of CSX owners.

In contrast, I don't notice too many FFR owners getting flamed for putting "Carroll Shelby Motorcars" license plate frames on their cars, Shelby Cobra emblems on their hoods and trunks, or afixing Shelby Auto, Inc., Venice, CA VIN plates to their cars...

Pay your money, make your choice
Pay $50k, get a finished FFR kit,
Pay $150,000, get a finished authentic CSX roller,
Pay $1,500,000, get an historic orginal CSX manufactured vehicle.
I don't know who you are, and don't presume to know what you tell people about your car, (nor do I give a sh*t).
You don't know a thing about me, nor what I say about my car.
Not that it matters, but my current license plate number is a random number.
With more important issues, like NObama gonna be the next President, inflation gonna go thru the roof, and unemployment gonna skyrocket, who gives a f*ck? Not you, nor I.
Nice thread killer.

Relax Francis. I think CSX cars are awesome. If the shoe I've described fits your foot then so be it.

I met a guy once with a GT40 (among other things) that was pretty awesome. Only later did I come to find out that the car has paperwork that authenticates it as being real. He never offered that tidbit of info although it's certainly noteworthy. He didn't feel like he needed to I guess. I now know that the car and owner are pretty authentic, if you know what I mean.

Enjoy your car and rest assured that no matter what happens we'll be dealing with a liberal.
