I've walked up to guys with a rough, work in progress and they have more knowledge and excitment for what they own than beer gut.

I'm not intereste in Static Motionless Trophy Winners! I'm more interested Checkered Flag Kind Winners! What major title of racing has a continuation won?


I don't care who asks me squat about my ride. Because I didn't buy a car to get chicks or have people hover over my chrome. The fact is if I went to an all Shelby show and you parked all the originals to the left side and continuations to the right. I and I'm sure most would be massing on the left. Why is your car much less important? Because anyone with the cash can go buy a new one. If SA sold 100,000 CSX4000 they would be passe.

Poser? Why did I say that?

The real meat IMO, is an original Shelby raced car not a poser, The Gold!

Poser 1st degree: anyone who bought an original to race.
Poser 2nd degree: anyone who bought an original for the street.

P1 and P2 are also gold but less than P1 IMO.

Poser 3rd degree: anyone who bought a continuation.
P3 is closer to P4 than P2.

Poser 4th degree: anyone who bought a replica, etc....
Poser 5th degree: anyone who bought a replica, etc....

I'm sure sub groups could extend the list. I randomly without calculation said, I'm a 7th degree. However maybe a 5th.

Ralphy: Yes, yes. This categorization helps tremendously.



Sorry your so worked up over this.
