MotoCobra: Now I'm an "ass" because you can't read.
Never said my car was "original". Its clearly not. But you have missed my point. Clearly par for the course for the FFR rabid.
As to "a people who lost a big part of their heritage" to the "Third Reich" I'm one of them pal. I can tell you stories of what they did to my family on my mother's side in Russia that would make your hair stand on end. My father was 1st Rangers in WWII and had the physical scars to prove it. I don't need a history lesson from you or your Dad. Believe me.
I didn't intend to refer to the fact that FFR owners are linked to the "Third Reich". I simply meant to refer to FFR owners who act like thugs in brow beating people and insulting people that dare to say anything even perceived as derrogatory about your beloved FFR. (Yet you guys feel you can trash the CSX with impunity as in calling it "fake", "copy" etc.. You guys are REALly something else.)
If you were dumb enough to interpret it any other way please accept my apology as it wasn't intended as you interpreted it.
As far as insulting the English, I didn't insult the English. The AC was a flimsy little roadster that would have faded into history to be nothing more than a footnote in some automotive book if it weren't for Carroll Shelby. Fact. It was Shelby that made it into a world champion. Not AC. It was Shelby and the boys that designed and created the 427 Cobra not AC. AC was little more than the fabricator and subcontractor for chasis and body. You need to do more reading on Cobra history.
CScott67: Again, I never said my car was original.
Maybe you never said the FFR on ebay was worth $70K but you did say others, in particular me, was elitest for arguing anyone paying that for a FFR is nuts. You then said FFR's have sold for over $40K. Not me.
While I couldn't care less if someone paid $40K or more for a FFR you made the statement so you do the research pal. Back up your statements with facts.
For those that missed this last time. My point is I don't believe the FFR on ebay was worth $70K and anyone paying that much is nuts. Its that simple.
Do I like FFRs. Yes. They are nice cars. Its that simple.
