I have no sympathy for any of you. All of you say it's tough explaining to someone what your (fill in the blank) is. Too bad. Wait until you bring a '66 AC to an event and people start asking questions. "Is this a Cobra?" "No. It's an AC 289 Sports." "Oh, so it's a replica." "No, it's a '66 AC." "But who built it?" "AC." "Who is AC? Do they build kits?" "Not that I know of." Soon, it's a lot like "Who's on first?" and it usually ends with a lot of head-shaking, eye-rolling, and shoulder-shrugging. Which may not be all that unusual for many of you. Life is tough; suck it up.
