Best response to, "Is that an original?"

MaSnaka,

It doesn't get any more REAL than the remark from your daughter. That pretty much says it all in the REAL world.......

While my car is not a Cobra, but a 66 GT-350 look-a-like/clone/re-creation, whatever, I get the same question often....One guy that seemed to know more about Mustangs than the average guy asked me that same question with a lot of respect and enthusiasum.....
Answer; I don't know, look it over and you tell me....

He looked it over for a few minutes and his reply was: I'm not sure,it could very well be an original.....

I said thanks very much, I must have done a good job on the car and then told him the truth...he was impressed with the car....

But the best times in the car were/are with my daughter...When I got the car on the road she was about 8 or 9 years old... I would always go get her at school on friday afternoon so she didn't have to have a 45 minute bus ride home, since the first grade. On friday morning when leaving for school, she would always ask if I would pick her up and I always told her I would and did, she would then say, "make sure it's in the Mustang" and I would.... She loved it....
Since 1996 we have only missed 3 forth of July Parades together in the car, and she's now 21 years old and still occasionally will cruise with me in the car.......

I guess one day when I don't drive it enough, I'll give it to her as she loves that car as much as I do...........

The correct answer for anything not in the CSX2 or CSX3 era is that it is a fake. Live with it. These cars are no more real Cobras than a $100 Rolex is a real Rolex. Enjoy your car, who cares?
