Turk - I could, at least in the past, buy a CSX component car and self-assemble it without loosing the number - it's simply built by Cracker in lieu of Roy .... (thank God). I don't see them (SAI) doing anything else to stand in the way of this project UNLESS they're even more stupid than I had given them credit for. As far as Finishline goes, I'd venture to bet that money's gone, sadly. Let's just not have short memories of what happened here with both SAI and F.L. - the Kirkham's, despite the shortcomings have come through in a way that really impresses me. If I'm ever driving an aluminum Cobra I will go out of my way to make sure it isn't a CSX car - this episode really has tainted any silver lining 'ole Shell had left, in my eyes but I'd venture to guess I'm not alone with this "ucky" feeling/viewpoint. Thank you David (Kirkhams) in picking up the ball! Kind of like your ebay efforts, not bad marketing but in this case you really, really deserve the positive press.
