I'm wholeheartedly with you about the addition of the VIN and particularly using one of AC's VINs...nobody I know likes a liar and that just REEKS of intent to decieve.

I think Dean is an outstanding builder. Period.

But, IMO, starting with a fiberglass car and then detailing it to the nth degree makes "negative sense" or "less than zero" sense to me.

Hours upon hours of painstaking labor and all the extra dollars spent on OEM/repro parts needed to detail a Cobra replica and no alloy body? Again, just my opinion and everyone has one.
