I've had my car out only 5 or 6 times and I've been asked that question every time! The very first time I put gas in it, a man and his wife said is it real or a KIT? I said a kit, he says aluminum or fiberglass? I said fiberglass..... OH! OK! He has no teeth, she is missing a lot herself, he is driving a beat to crap Aerostar and has the nerve to say OH... I mean, seriously, what I wanted to say is that Carroll Shelby's personal Aerostar your driving? I sort of blew it off but every time since it's the big question!

I just finally said yep it's a kit, when's the last time you saw a real one or do I look I could afford a $200K car? I guess I'm pretty young to even have a Replica and I'm proud of that! It really throws them off when I say it's a small block car! They say what, it's not a 427, nope AND it's actually a FIA Replica, a whaaaaat?? That's when I know it's time to move on, I've really lost them! Matt
