Ever try pulling up to a Ferrari club meet in a 308-bodied Fiero?

That may be an old opinion, since Cobra replicas permeate all of SAAC today.

Although not permitted in Concours events or true Vintage Racing, replicas are trophy winners in SAAC's National Car Show and participate in Open Track events.

"Worship" may be a bit strong..."preservation of the brand and its legacy" may be more accurate.
