Captain: You absolutely do have the right. Chasis choice is certainly a valid concern or criteria. I can think of a number of reasons why one may want a SPF over a CSX or visa versa. All depends what you want and whats important to you. Seriously.

I think SPF is a great car and product. I like them a lot. In fact my cousin has decided to buy a Cobra, and being the family/resident Cobra expert he called me to ask me a gazzillion questions. First was what should be buy between $40K and $60K.

While I recognize there are other quality replicas out there I made only two recommendations. ERA and SPF.

I think Ernie is right. I don't think crushable frames amout to much in these cars. If your in an accident serious enough to start crush on one of those chasis your already in DEEP doodo.

I think whats more important is a collapsable steering column.

As to the donation issue I again agree with Ernie. There has been so much bull$hit said, hearsay, innuendo and various garbage I don't think we will ever really know who said and did what. There are probably more than three sides to this storey.
