Cleared up? The fact I'm not accusing anybody of fraud.


I've seen you build some very nice Cobras over the years, would you ever rivet an AC (or whatever marque) ID plate or stamped non-existent VIN's on one of your builds?

Thank you
No Sir, (to be honest, I can't remember if I added one of those cheap id tags on the foot box of my first replica or not, definitely would not stamp a fake csx#)



I know the folks over on the SAAC Forum would not be too happy about fake Shelby Mustangs and Cobras with fake ID plates running around the globe.

I think they will survive

Personally, I actually object to putting any Shelby wheel caps, steering wheel center cap, exterior emblems, gas pedals, or any Shelby paraphernalia on my Kirkham, let alone a Shelby/AC ID plate. And if I weren't such a lazy butt, I'd change the valve covers from "Cobra LeMans" to plain jane Blue Thunder FE valve covers.


Once again your opinion, I have no problem with that.

Let's take this to pm, as I am getting the feeling you want to make it personal?
As I am afraid this is getting off topic and adding no real value to the op!
Your call.
