If you're looking for Evan, then he's active on the Porsche Forum in the GT3RS subforum. He's not causing too much trouble, unless you say that your 911R is better than his GT3RS, which it is.

I miss him, though. And ERAchas, and Excalibur, and so on, and so on. They're starting to drop like flies now.

Easier than baiting one of our presidential candidates in a debate.
I'm always a sucker for less weight, no stupid rear wings and a 3rd pedal.

What do you miss? All he spoke of is that his car was a real genuine authentic Shelby Cobra. And then pointed to 10-year old out-of-date SAAC references. He was a broken record. Geez, I just dated myself.

Hopefully, the issues were mechanical and not misrepresentations.

Well, the OP's car has intrigue. No MSO, a fake AC ID plate with "COB 0666" and allegedly seamed like Kirkham, but with no Kirkham stampings anywhere and a VERY fat lip around the radiator opening.
Possibly arrived from Poland thru Puerto Rico and potentially violated Federal laws entering the US, instead of someone just purchasing a body and chassis from Kirkham directly here in the good old USA.
You can't sink your teeth into this story?

Naaaah, that sort of stuff happens all the time. Usually there's a couple of kilos in the trunk, as well.

Without Kirkham MSO and VIN stampings? If so, you saying so doesn't make it true.
I saw Big Foot and the Loch Ness monster once, but I forgot to bring my camera.

I heard a CHEVY is a much better choice in a Cobra kit car?

Thanks, I appreciate it. I actually fell asleep during Western Civilization class in school and, when I was paying attention, I would generally just copy from the people sitting around me in class.
Sounds like Germany needs better border control, and maybe should find a candidate for chancellor who'll build a great big wall with a great big door!
Pictures or it never happened.

Well, you'll certainly lose less money with a Chevy engine.

Why would anyone use an LS engine in a Cobra replica?
