JWilly: SPFs are get cars and tremedous value for the buck IMHO. I would definitely own one.

Russ: Russ your comments are great. Mr. Mustangs response is silly. There are enough SPFs around that I am sure the magazine could source a SPF out for a compro with the same engine as an original. You can leave the suspension stock and compare stock original to stock replica with same power train. I'm sure there would be plenty of SPF owners willing to have their car in the magazine.

Oinie: Excaliburs are great cars. At least I think so. I owned one. There are some "racers" that make fun of the Excalibur but hey they know more then waxers so who are we to say.

Problem with the Excaliburs is as you know the 5.0 engine and the extented wheelbase. Not a good compro.

Don: Thanks for your post.
