It's also comical to me that most of your posts are about for-profit companies making a profit and it's always some mass conspiracy. And how a thinly-traded public company, at $0.17/share, though still regulated by the SEC, is somehow cheating their customers by making too much profit and/or their employees are committing embezzlement.

What's more surprising is when you do make a point worth making. So far in this thread you are at a 0.

Your feigned faux pas intended as a put down is factually accurate when applying Websters definition. It's all in the current Registry.
You should also apply your amazing deductive powers to the question of why Shelbys cost more than Kirkhams. Once you find the answer please report back and enlighten us.

That makes absolute no since but when do you, they will cost more in the end because they cost more in the beginning, and why do you tell us in your title that you have an ORIGINAL side oiler in your car but don't state that your SHELBY is original, is it not, according to you it is...

You need to proof read your posts a little more before you hit that little "post" button.
To try and answer your garbled response all I can say is ...Uh, no. My Sideoiler is an original cast iron 1965 block. That's why it is an original Side oiler. Yup. Pretty easy right.
As to my Shelby, you are correct...it is not an original. Are you saying I do say it's an original or I don't say it's an original??? Can't tell from your cryptic response what you are saying. Let me respond nevertheless. Very simply I don't say it is an original Shelby and clearly never have because it clearly is not. It is clearly denoted as a 4000 series Cobra in my info as to the car. I'm sorry if you are confused or feel misled. However, you appear to be alone in that confusion or feeling as no one else seems to be confused or misled.
Also, just to follow up.... have you figured out why Shelbys sell for more? Let us know when you figure out the answer. We'll be here.

You always state your cobra as an ORIGINAL, that's why I think your nuts, it's a REPLICA...even if it has the cxs number, is it original or not...

English is my second language so proof read it for me, your obviously getting the point...and I don't use spell check, just as Lawyers don't honestly describe their Replicas...

Since I "always" state my Cobra is an original cite me one example where I said that. Should be easy since I "always" say it.
Based on your communication and comprehension ability in English I would say English is a distant (very distant) second language for you.
Now you have two homework assignments.
1. Show me where I said my Shelby was an original. Should take no time since as you said I always say it.
2. Still waiting for you to explain why Shelbys cost more.

I'm with Evan on this one. Show us where he claimed his car was an original. Not where he said it is an authentic Shelby, but where he said it is an original.

That's easy, Shelby's cost more because there are people willing to buy all Shelby can produce. Simple supply and demand.
Doesn't mean that they will be worth more than any other replica when the bubble bursts or the mystique fades. They're still a replica. No more, no less.

Jim,
Just because a bubble may (or may not) burst, that doesn't mean their relative values get zeroed out.
Has this ever happened, anywhere? Any product?
A rising tide lifts all boats (and visa versa). Values may drop but it's my contention that the brands' values will remain relative to what they are today.
That's absolutely not a dig on any brand, BB vs SB, blah, blah, blah.

Give me about 2 months of research, you have spewed so much bull on here I have to go through it all, you know how you lawyers do it.. And about my English, if you have to attack me personally that's fine, God knows everyone does it to you...

I might be wrong on this but I believe a Kirkham roller sells for more than a glasss csx, by 10K, so a Shelby does not cost more, that answers question number 2...

Correct as to part 1.
Incorrect as to part 2.
Hint. Correct answer is in the latest Registry and Websters as referenced in the Registry. Also see Rodneys post above.

To my knowledge he has never claimed his Cobra is an ORIGINAL. He has however, "claimed" that it is a GENUINE Shelby Cobra, which it clearly is.
It isn't difficult to understand....or maybe it is?

Nice try but let's stay with comparing apples to apples.
Again, why do aluminum Shelbys sell for more than an equivalent Kirkham? Hint. Someone already blurted out the answer. That may help you.
By the way I wasn't attacking you personally. If you can't communicate well in English you can't. It's fact. I must say though you made remarkable strides in the last two posts. Well done.
As you noted I know a personal attck when I see one.
As to your other quest. Good luck with that one.
