Rodknock I think you missed your calling. You should be a Cobra pricing consultant.
It's quite hilarious that you always complain about all the people on CC criticizing your Continuation Cobra but here you are clearly being the instigator and on the attack.

Take a look in the mirror because your logic applies to you and your Fake of the original too. You are such a broken record, no one cares you own a Continuation Fake. Move on with your life and just focus on driving it and having fun.

it is hilarious! The guy with the faker hot rod calls out the guy with an authentic Shelby Cobra.

What does your car title say, "South African hot rod", "Cobra replica", "Cobra kit"? Do you pay less fees at the DMV when they look up your car in Kelly Blue book/SAAC Registry?

It seems a lot of high dollar non-Shelby cobra owners are embarrassed & defensive when peeps keep asking them, "is yours real?" They need to justify the $$$ spent with a long, fictional story about their rides.

Kirkhams will always keep over priced csx continuations in check just as FFRs/ERAs/BDRs will always keep over priced SPFs in check.

If you want a Kirkham instead of a Shelby that's your play.

Yes. Of course. You should consult with them on their pricing.

Ooh someone's a little sensative. You sure can dish it out...

No I don't complain I just keep the facts straight for those that visit by using my CC pooper scooper to remove the informational turds left by the peanut gallery.

You can't even get your insults straight. You really need to read what you post more carefully.

In the meantime the facts, the law and the Registry are very clear. Yes we all know BuddyG and the Peanut Gallery have their own little view. Hey you guys could start a band. Kinda catchy name. Your first song title should be "Sour Grapes".

Actually I don't play favorites. Not one bit. My responses are to content of which I am exceedingly consistent. You however like to argue both sides just for $hits and giggles.

Yes, let's keep the facts straight and I've also got to get out my pooper scooper.

Shelby Cobra Continuations are NOT $200K cars. You can "wax on" and/or "wax off" about a build sheet from HRE for $245K, but anyone can be taken advantage of and spend zillions on their build. Or cajole an insurance company into thinking their car is worth $245K by using a "toilet paper appraisal". The fact of the matter is that there's an unsold CSX alloy asking $165K.

So let's get REAL and scoop some poop.

Had enough...haven't read anything new from anyone in pages, and I'm really not happy about reading damn near a full page of posts from any one person (in this case, Evan).

NYG...you're just sitting around taking shots at folks. Why don't you really try to learn from this site and read instead of typing. This is more than a suggestion.

Next person that repeats himself buys a week, so maybe y'all ought to go back through your posts and reread them.

Let's look at this a different way. Whether you think it is worth it or not a new aluminum Shelby roller is $160k. I haven't verified that but no one seems to be challenging it. Is it unreasonable to expect a full drivetrain and installation, along with a few options not included in the base price will add another $40k? I know mine came close to that a few years ago. You now have a $200k car. You may not agree that it's worth that much but that's what it cost. Those being sold for less may have been purchased before the roller price increases. Or the seller may be willing to take a loss for whatever reason.

Well I think it's in proper English.

1. What are the details in the early CSX 1000's that are not in the later generation continuations. You mentioned this re-read your earlier post.

Jamo,

If you wish to suspend or ban me from this forum, u will be violating my U.S. rights. My opinions are my opinions, whether u agree or disagree is none of your concern. It doesn't matter if this thread is 1 page, 29 pages, or infinite pages.

You are a moderator in a public, free American based forum and in my expert opinion (18 professional years building the internet, making it censor-free) your only duty is to make sure this forum stays active and all its business/commerce responsibilities stay working. The internet was built for the purpose of communication. Opinions and disagreements will be resolved in its own course, usually last man standing and every guy here will decide on his own what is real, what its worth, and what is baloney. Not moderators.

CSX 1000 is just a more expensive model, not an earlier generation. For a brief period of time the post Angliss version of AC managed to produce some frames and bodies for Shelby. The very first one was actually a complete roller.

Maybe we better ad a few posts about watches for Jamo's entertainment.


I actually made that earlier post abut Real1 starting the thread and let him back in because of a post that I thought posted the day earlier.

I was rushing leaving the Montreal race heading to Baton Rouge because my friend was one of the contestants of Miss America Pageant and running real late. I was reading all the same crumbs over and over and I wish it did post because it was rather good. I don't think I can duplicate it but maybe have one of my IT guys can find it because I have a shadow program built in to copy key strokes because a few times I lost intel.

That Continuation cobra alumin. on ebay has about 300 miles on it. Anyone know

the story on that one of why someone unloaded it?

nyg

Let me handle this one Jamo...



Well when you were in diapers or even before then I was spilling my blood protecting those rights in which you speak of. Sort of trivial that you need to bring this up, personally I would have saved those points for something important. Maybe you feel a bit slighted. Oh about those rights they have been getting weaker and weaker ever since Bush. Those same rights in the Constitution have been greatly weakened sad to say. Maybe you should direct the serious civil rights violations being broken 24/7 by the NSA and other sister agencies in a proper forum.

Wonder what the rules are in joining this site? Did anyone read tem? I thought Jamo offered some good advice. Wouldn't want to see him really violate you now.


Ok sorry carry on.
