Some times the answer is "no it's not an original it's better, because I get to drive it and not worry about it being worth a fortune".

But I hear the response a lot when people realize it's a replica they say "I know a guy who has/had an original". What can you say to that? I just get tired of hearing it but I know I'm living my dream so who gives a s---.

I went with my 11 year old daughter yesterday to a local car show as spectators. After that we went for a burger and a cruise down to the coast along the beach and back towards home through Kanan canyon. A long hilly windy road with 3 tunnels to pass through. Inside the tunnels I push in the clutch and rev it up a few times to about 5500 rpms. Sounds pretty real to me. She said as we were getting close to home what a great time she had...made my day.

Cheers,
John
