Well, that pretty much closes the case on FFR owners and snubbing. That little incident seems to be classic FFR behavior and is awfully hard to refute.

I can say the same thing about certain ERA owners as well. Some of them are jealous that they do not have original ERA's, but continuation series ERA's.

Bill I think that you can have an original as well as a real ERA but only if your car has a single digit serial number  . I have found more "snooty" replica owners than original Cobra owners. Of course I have met a lot more of the replica owners  .

I remember looking at your car just before you bought it, kept thinking how well it held up for being as old as it was. Yes indeed, you have an original ERA on your hands.....
