Talking Yeah, but is it "real"?

Yes I believe Arnolds Humvee is an "original" military vehicle modified at great expense with "creature comforts" just for him!

Around that same time, perhaps BECAUSE Arnold had one, the idea to produce some at the factory specifically for civilian use started. All though "real" these would be at best the "continuation" Humvee's.

Now the new Humvee II is widely available at a fraction of the cost of an "original". These of course would be "replica" Humvee's.

..not that any of us would know anything about this original vs real vs replica thing.

Which of course then begs the question:
The glass "kit Humvee" sold by Don Scott through Classic Roadsters II is a (pick one):
1. Real?
2. Original?
3 Replica?
4 Replica of a replica?
5 Just drive the dam thing anyway you can and enjoy it!
