Exactly, except this isn't the seller's actual ad. A ClubCobra member posted it here for discussion, which we're doing.

This is a separate forum from BaT, if you didn't notice.


And if you've never entered a discussion forum before, say like one that discusses the NBA or MLB or NFL, then the comments made here in comparison are tame.

Bottom line, a date code correct NOS side oiler block in a fiberglass Cobra replica, where nothing else is date code correct but the block, is utter nonsense to me.

And Thor maine is correct above. It's a "nice kit car."

As is, to me, an unpainted car, but to each his own.

Ooh that one hurt. Wow, you really got me with that one. Still quick as a whip, and sharp as a tack, Tony.

Hey Tony, isn't about that time to get in line for the Early Bird Special at the local "all-you-can eat" buffet and get some chicken wings, cheesy bread sticks and mashed potatoes, no?

It has everything a growing boy could love: cheese, bread, butter, salt.

On a related topic, here's something for you "chew on."

So grab another cheesy bread stick.

Uhhhh, aren't those the "four food groups" that we learned about as kids?

Why nonsense, kidding aside WTF is wrong with a nice car with a premium engine under the hood. The embellishments may be BS but as far as the engine, I'd rather have it than not.

IMO and I'm sure there are many here who disagree, date coded engines in replicas, any replica, including Porsche Speedsters and Spyders, are just plain wasting time. If it were a real Cobra, Porsche or Corvette, then I get it. They made those cars in the 1960's.

i don't know any speedster replicas nor continuation cars, i only know some speedster lookalikes, complete other pair of shoes

a replica is a complete date correct original specificated copy, therefore a replica needs an original specificated engine, mostly only available as date coded engine

a kirkham is the perfect replica in the sense of the meaning, csx 4000 alu is no original, no replica-copy but a continuation, csx 4000 fiberglass... a continuation but no exact replica ...
