First,let me apologize for offending any Classic owners, I wasn't implying as much about the cars as the yardstick. A Classic, in my opinion, falls short of several varieties of Cobras I have seen and for someone claiming an original 427SO I thought the yardstick would be different. I do not have a Cobra, that is why it's not listed, I do build Hot Rods and Custom cars and have wanted a Cobra since riding in a local one in 1969. I have looked at all types of kits since the Arntz and from my view I don't think the Classis is the Industry yardstick that he was claiming. My comments about them were made from my examination of the kits and my exposure to the company at Trade Shows. I'm glad those that have them are happy with them, that's what is important. After we finish a few of the Deuces we have for sale,we'll get a Cobra kit, which kind I'm unsure,but know it won't be a Classic. No offense meant,I'll probably have to have a Ford engine, no offense to those that want a Chevy or any other type, probably IRS, no offense to those that have solid axles. I didn't intend to offend anyone with my comments, but as a long time Ford guy, this guy seemed a little "grey".
By the way I won't buy any Classic rods either, or several others, so it wasn't personal.
