This whole sour grapes thing is ridiculous, I could have bought a "Continuation Cobra" but I didn't see the value in spending more money for essentially the same thing. You did and you bought yours and that's what's great about freedom. I don't really care what you call your Replica of the original. I just don't care for you or your condescending attitude.
You are the one with the inability to analyze and understand.

The above again is yet another shining example of your inability to grasp and comprehend. I am not scrambling to justify. It's their inconsistency not mine. "They" did not say it wasn't a genuine or real Cobra. It was one person who wrote that passage and wrote it in clear conflict the the rest of the Registry in many areas on many pages. I believe clearly an axe to grind motivating that passage. In sharp contrast to this one man's statement buried in a non working portion of the Registry I offer as just one example the following: Please refer to page 30 of the Registry. You will also note the express verbiage "SAAC has established" as a preface to the working definitions they set out. Go on to read the definitions. This is just one supporting example. There are numerous others.
As far as being condescending. I will agree to disagree here. You like that phrase right? I was merely setting out what SAAC's official position as they expressly stated they established. Not my words. Theirs.
If the "editor in chief's" view is in fact SAAC view they should have made it clear to Continuation Cobra owners when solicitiing information on their Continuation Cobras. If that "view" was SAAC's view and was made known to Continuation Cobra owners I doubt they would receive much cooperation or information from them and if that is their "view" as opposed to what is clearly expressly stated otherwise in many areas of Registry I dare say they shouldn't expect much cooperation in the future from Continuation owners to keep track of these cars. Certainly won't get much cooperation from me.
However, based on my reading of Registry I don't believe this one persons view is SAAC's official position. It clearly is not as I literally read the working parts of the Registry.
Regardless some clarification should be provided by them as to why that paragraph which is so inconsistent and contrary to the rest of the Registry was published.
Cheers.
AL427SBF is correct once again.
Paul F: Yes. I clearly understand your point and yes if we are limiting Real Cobras to originals and yes most people want to know if its an original. I get it. I'll take you up on your offer if I am ever in San Fran. Likewise..
If you are ever in NJ pm me. Would love to have a get together with you.
Cheers.
