I guess we need to refresh some memories as to why so many here have dog piled onto REAL1.

1. He continues to misrepresent his Shelby Continuation (replica) Cobra to the general public (as verified by his written ad in 2004, his statements on this forum over the years and his license plate) so that "Joe Public" thinks CSX4206 is actually a 60's era legend rather than the modern day kit car it actually is.

Why he does this, we can only speculate. Too many avenues to examine. And, once caught in his deception (and caught red handed with his own worded sales ad) he continues to try and dance around the truth rather than admit his deeds and move on. That's the lawyer in him. Deny, deny, deny and hopefully he can talk his way out of it. Unfortunately for him, no one here is buying what he's selling, so the push is on.

No one is questioning whether or not continuation cars are made by Shelby.
No one is putting his or any other replica down.
No one here has any beef with any other poster about the way they represent their car.
Our beef is with him and only him. His blatant dishonesty pisses quite a few of us off and now that he has been caught by his own words, he still tries to dance his way out.

No one here has resorted to more name calling and attempts at belittling than REAL1 has. When he can't get his point across he resorts to those tactics hoping to get a rise from the poster and divert him from the topic at hand. He thinks he's a master manipulator. His tactics might work on a jury, but then again jurys are comprised largely of individuals who weren't smart enough to get out of jury duty. Not the case here.
So, if you want this thread to go away (this topic has been beaten to death every year since REAL1 enrolled in this forum, and, oddly enough, he always seems to be the target of discussion) all you have to do is convince REAL1 to change his claims.
But, we have seen over the last decade that that is highly unlikely.
