The dog is cute.

The whole "da bunnies" thing is a little 3rd grade for me. Certainly there must be a different way of keeping the big secret and getting no point across would be better. But hey whatever floats people's boats.

X 2.

There is-keep it off the board if you're not going to examine a subject.

Would like to hear from Ron or Jamo's take on selective posting.

I wouldn't get too upset over Bill's joking...it really is a tongue-in-cheek running gag he has propagated over the years.

I believe it sources back to the pack of urban legends that surrounded the lost Phil Spector coupe...where (something like) the daughter of the owner may have killed herself and was found with her pet rabbits; no one knew how she met her fate... except, perhaps, for the rabbits ("da bunnies").

Bill has worn that gag thin over the years, implying secret knowledge over this or that. ..and he'll correct me if I am wrong with the source information.

Regardless, most of this thread is content-free and really should just be kept light.

No one knows nuthin'...unless Uncle Bruce has found one of those few missing Cobras in Pittsburgh that he, map and I talked about at SAAC-34.

Only da' bunn.... oops, forget about it.

Ah yes, the origins of "Da Bunnies", pretty darn close, with just some very minor things that are not 100% factual. While starting out in a manner that was tongue in cheek as Ron has stated above, over the years "Da Bunnies" have turned up some truly interesting historical (and unknown until that time) items related to vintage (IE: original) Shelby items (Shelby Mustangs and Shelby related Cobras), so to say that "Da Bunnies" organization is not indeed "real"(tm) would not be 100% accurate .

We all know that Bill has been on a strict carrot diet.

Ron, thank you for finally explaining the whole "Da Bunnies" thing.

While I'm the first guy to make sarcastic remarks, jokes, banter and such; however, if that is indeed the source for the whole "Da Bunnies" gag, then it seems a little sad that it sources from any persons daughter's death. I'm not familiar with the story, but that's only my humble opinion. I know Bill is a good guy and I'm not blaming him for anything.

Back to the funny thread about an air car. My apologies.
