And, since you asked, my plate says 427-SNAK. and when asked if mine is real, I reply "no, it's a replica." I guess my ego is smaller than yours.

Hit a nerve????
Don't flatter yourself. You are asute though in observing my Cobra is not an original series Cobra. My passion is satisfied just fine and fully with my Continuation Shelby. Thanks though.
Yes, I know what your plate is. The plate is intentionally misleading in one respect and just flate false in the other. First, your car doesn't have a real 427. Its a stroked short block. When people ask is that a 427 you know they are asking....that' rights..., they really want to know if it's an original real FE427SO not some run of the mill stoked 351. Second the clear reference to 'snake' in the plate clearly says your car is a Cobra which is false in every respect.
There are many others here with misleading plates and they know who they are some of whom hypocritically saying what they are saying in this thread. This is just too "rich".
Classic Club Cobra.
My sides hurt from laughing. Seriously.
Seems like you are the one that longs for a Shelby Cobra rather then a copy of one. Your only cure is to pony up.
Your plate says it all.
Oh, BTW your response telling people it's a replica is "technically misleading" too. See Websters. Also the Registry. You should simply say its a fake Cobra. Technically accurate and true, however, since by asking if its a "replica" you take it as really asking if its a fake I guess your good.
