In regard to the article about Cobras: real vs. replica: the take aways I got I'm pretty sure we all agree with, and that is a) having an original Cobra from the 60's is the ultimate Cobra to own, though you are somewhat limited as a custodian of a historical artifact; b) having a wicked Cobra replica is pretty *****'n too, and you don't have to worry quite as much about custodianship, and can change it to fit your needs without a pain of conscience.

I'm thrilled with my replica (and it doesn't even run yet...), but if I had the dough for an original, early 1960's Cobra, yeah, I'd buy it.
