No flaming arrows from here, Ted!

You are right in the sense that he does owe those who have deposits a car.

The rest of us? Nothing.

He is a wealthy man from other sources and I really don't think that propogating the Cobra "mystique" by building a bunch of replica's did anything but give him heartburn. I think the Cobra would have had just as much of a legendary following if there wasn't one replica made.

I do not think that we are his market. How many aluminum CSX cars are there on CC? I think the glass cars are a $$ loser for him and I can see them fulfilling their commitment (I hope) and then not doing them any more.

There are only a handful of people on CC who could (or maybe would) buy a Shelby

Delivering the car to Dwayne would be the right thing to do in these circumstances.

Cobranut - do you really think that is why he started with the replica's?
