That's the point I am trying to make clear but many of you only hear what you want to hear and either don't get it or do and don't care.

Here goes nothing...
As I first stated KISS keep it simple stupid. So stupid here(me) by my definition:
This is my viewpoint and not trying to oppose others or demean them by dictionary quotes. I just can't argue with logic and such a well spoken man.
Cobra: 1960's roadster AC & Shelby....you know the history.
Now Real 1 by applying my simple but accurate definition you do not have a Cobra.
Do you have? Continuation/reissue I guess so.
Replica..not sure because you do have modern parts and not a copy of the original
Kit..not sure because I thought your model comes less engine and drivetrain.
So BIG no on yours being a Cobra. Just say Continuation Cobra because using Cobra is not accurate.
Also I have a whole four drawer cabinet on Cobras and in fact a small folder in there marked "other". I have literature of the copper Kirkham and a few other things of interest to me. Funny thing is we do have a Stallion but that is listed under Kellison and not Cobra or other.
Now I started this thread to point out your word usage when you are describing the definition of a Cobra and how far others are from YOUR definition. Read your words about "trying to demean" because that is exactly what you do. Just an observation.
And here's another observation.... you bring it to a personal level with insults. Just read your sentence below. You not only have to bring the language in this thread but you have to degrade and make a comment that it means less than O. Do you not know how to speak to people or about them. Once again trying to degrade someone by attempting to lift yourself up.
If you are going to act like a boy by playing in the sandbox as you say... PLEASE bring some sand because all I get from your posts is a bunch of hot air and slinging BS over and over again. And I guess you can't pull the "he insulted me first" card from up your sleeve as you usually do.
Real 1: "He is clearly entitled to his opinion. Just like a$$holes everyone has one. No issue with his opinion at all as that's all it is and means 0 to anyone but him and less then 0 to me."
Carry on
