I've probably been asked a couple of hundred times during the past 5 years and I accept it for what it is. I've never seen anyone look disappointed after I confirm it's a "kitcar". I went on a long cruise a few months ago with 20 other replicas and one 64 289 car. It has never been restored so as you would expect from any "driven" 40+ year old car, it was the least "polished" of the lot. It's funny watching spectators drool over the SPFs, FFRs and Uniques and scoff at the little dingy white Cobra. After all, if it weren't for the "is it real? mistique, this sport wouldn't be anything like it is!
