Tommy,

I know of a particular PA based CSX4000 series owner (beautiful build) who repeatedly tells people the following:

1: The car was built in 1965
2: Carroll Shelby personally built this car himself, not for himself, but personally built it
3: All others are "nothing but V8 powered"kit cars built on VW chassis's"

Nobody will even bother to correct him, as he is a blowhard, and anyone that spends more than 2 minutes with him realizes it immediately.


Most people see through this particular owners claims, but I'll bet 10% do not.
