Oh Evan, you need to come out to the LVSAAC events some time, where you will meet a certain CSX4000 series owner who's tales about his car get better and better each time he shows it. First it started out that the car was produced and hand built by CS himself, then that his supercharged engine was hand built by CS and that he has turned down 2.5M for his car several times over. While his car is indeed beautiful (as is yours), it was not built in the 60's, nor was it hand built by CS. At a meet in Hershey, he was overseen arguing with the staff about the pedigree of his car, waving a copy of his MSO (signed by CS) as "proof" of what the car was. I have "personally" witnessed at least 11 other "Continuation Series" owners across the county who have acted in a similar nature. Drinking the CS Koolaid of the time period and hoping their "Tardis" was in working order.
As for an ERA trade for a CSX, funny, but I knew someone with a beautiful yellow ERA once who lost a simple, local Mustang Club car show to an equally beautiful (but cleaner and more detailed) Factory Five Cobra. To show his disgust (and perhaps lack of better judgement), in the middle of the awards presentation (after he lost
), he fired up his yellow chariot and proceed to do a large burnout out of the parking lot and on to RT10 west in Randolph, NJ, making a fool out of himself in the process(in front of 200+ witnesses of all age groups). Rumor has it he sold the car soon afterwards and ordered a jet black CSX4000 series in aluminum so that this never happened again..........
