Of course they are, anyone who wants the best buys the best, Kirkham, even SHELBY knows that...that's why Shelby buys Kirkhams rebadge them and price hikes the **** out of them...

Just like '62 to '68. History has a way of repeating itself.

Thread discussions have a history of repeating themselves too.

Absolutely. Nothings immune. Did you notice it in post #3 or did it take you until post#6 to to see it?

Oh no! Evans not dumb. Make no mistake.
He just kinda shorts out on this one little point.
Oh, and this little edit to say, the original AC cobra chassis providers have nothing, NOTHING, on Kirkham's production methods or engineering.
...and at least back in the day Shelby added something tangible to the equation, not just badges.

You meant "comment" and "dumb ass" right.  Always embarrassing to be corrected by a dumb ass.

A little edit to your edit.
Yes, correct. The Kirkham Cobras are far better cars then the originals ever were so are the continuation Shelbys. Further, back in the day Shelby improved the car and thats what made it a Shelby Cobra. Simple enough. Nothing to change now. Just duplicate it.
BTW SAI did incorporate their own suspension components early on in the early continuation cars and did not use Kirkham components circa 1997 to 2001. Don't know what they do now.

Spelling means nothing on a forum where we are having fun, I could care less about spelling, what I do know how to do is count my money, and s h i t on folks like you, and every time you get the point... it must suck to go through life being a spelling teacher, I remember in 3rd grade kicking the teachers a s s because I wanted to...

I apologize for starting this tread over again. I really didn't see it before. Take it as another opportunity to argue amongst yourselves.
Another picture

You kicked your teacher's "a s s" in third grade simply because you wanted to?  My, you are a tough little bugger.
This really occured in 3rd grade? Really? Let me guess you grew up as a child traveling with gypsies in a circus and were taught by (or in your case attempted to be taught by) circus midgets or you went to elementary school in the land of Oz?
Either way, sad to throw education away at such an early age but it does explain your posts the last of which unequivocally proves a mind is a terrible thing to waste.

But since we are on the topic, to your point -- It all depends how you measure... By percentage Yes, by sheer volume No...
But you don't bank percentages now do you

I hate to change the subject, but Shelby Co. sure knows how to strike while the iron is hot.
Brilliant marketing while the name still means something.
