Saw that the actor who played the California surfer in "that movie" passed away just the other day.

And now you're trying to make me feel OLD! Is there no end to the cruelty?? (and for the benefit of our younger readers, the quote was from the film The Sound of Music, when the Von Trapp family tried to take out an injunction to stop some foul-mouthed 'actress' from trampling all over their meadows)
I'll get this thread off-topic if it kills me......

Trev...you'd probably make it onto Oprah's book of the month club with a title like that.

I wonder why Amy (Shelby's secretary/manager) hasn't been around here for a while. Could it be she can't/won't take the heat with all the FFR support here? She was in full 'damage control' mode (good cop, bad cop) after the last lawsuit, but maybe now she's embarrassed by Shel's latest tirade. Maybe she's just lurking about, trying to pick up as much scuttle-butt as possible without stirring up too much doo doo. I'm sure she saw this coming.

Because, the last time she participated in a CS lawsuit thread, the thread was 50-60 pages and then the CC site crashed for a week or two.
The largest threads on CC are almost always the legal/lawsuit threads. Hmmm, I wonder why.  Could it be that everyone either is a lawyer, wants to be a lawyer or was a lawyer?

I be to differ, the largest thread to date have been simple one:
1: What is the proper rivet count, spacing, and patterns for the hood.
Why I personally know of one owner who has had not one, two or three, but four times as many hood rivet patterns performed on his car than anyone else on Club Cobra. And he has still not got it right

The only slightly amusing part of all this is-
Considering all the replica manufacturers that have gone out of business over the years, Shelby Enterprises will probably be able to do this every 5 years or so just to get the "new guys" attention......
Most of them seem to go out of business without any help at all from Shelby......  who do you suppose is next????

You're right! It's just a rotating shakedown of the replica manufacturers.
The old man gets a hair up his a$$ one day and someone has to pay.

OK...Evan's come and gone. Back to the thread, although there seems to be less and less to be said about the actual topic.

Absolutely. Now, back to the rivet pattern question.

I wanna talk about whether the knock-off wire should have a left or right hand twist.

Depends on whether you're above or below the equator.
