I was attending a show a couple of weeks ago for another mark (Sunbeam Tiger) but took my SPF. At the show were two guys who wrenched at SAI "back in the day" and another who worked and drove for SAI. One of the guys was the one who actually stuffed the first 427 into a Cobra (he had a very funny story about it). When I drove up they all three came over and were drooling over the car and until I told them it was an SPF they all thought it was real and agreed it was the best looking car there.

Another story. A couple months back some friends and I had gone for a drive along Skyline Blvd. There were three Sunbeam Tigers and two SPF cars. We stopped at an overlook to take a group picture and rest a minute. Everyone at the spot was walking past the cars but they were all having their picture taken in front of my car. As I walked up to my car to get ready to leave one Japanese lady said in very broken english "I like your car best". You just gotta love that!
