if anything is sillier then SAI vs everyone else, it's Kirkham vs Kimmons.

I've seen Evan's car and the 9/11 car and I've got to say if these cars are not "Cobra" enough for for you.....try Zoloft.

HA HA! Well said PK! I'm not a wine fancier in that I can't really tell one fancy wine from another, but some can. Kirkham vs Shelby vs Kimmons is JUST like that for me, fine wine and a tough call!

Hmmmm....

By golly, sure wished I could have an arruminum scoop on my poor Kirkham like them soft skinned Kimmons do. Oh, wait a minute--I do!

BB v. SB; ERA v. SAI; SAI v. Kirkham; CSX REAL or replica?; Arrumimum v. Glass; Arruminum v. Arruminum;

Whats next?

Boy this has been a long winter!

Patina? Dr. Bolte, what the @#$% are you talking about????? Arruminum is Arruminum. Besides I like the Kirkham patina better! . CSX 4206 has the most beautiful patina of all. Only problem is its under the paint.

Brett how does your patina compare to the patina of the original AC arruminum?????

Jamo- How do you get your snake so much harder than mine? Must be the right hand

I thought the whole point of this thread was comparing cars. The only time you get personal, is when its about a Kirkham. No problem bashing SAI though. Heck, even the website moderator can't pass up an opportunity that good.

CJ- for continuity, you should paint your new KMP green, stick a surfboard in it, take it to Hawaii, and ride up to the North Shore with Excaliber.

Jamo - my Big Buddy, I thought they were going to sand your car for you?

Brett- Why is your windshield so upright?

If you're serious, and not making a snappy comeback to my Jamo joke, I guess I don't know. It was assembled by McCluskey to be a sister car to the continuation car he built for Carroll Shelby, CSX 3056. I think you're pulling my leg though.

Brett,

That car definately looks different than the polish body! I cant tell if its the suspension set-up or the fender flare or even the rake to the windsheild .............but that body looks different............and i gotta say I think it looks more like the 3000 series. beautiful car!

Thanks. When I'm in Seattle I'll take you out to lunch on the water. If it was a 3000, I'd take you out to dinner!

Oh man,,,,just when I thought we were having a civilized conversation exploring the differences that make all these cars great! There is a difference in the two bodies. I never would have noticed had it not been pointed out.

Thats the thing about fine wines you see........

Hmmmm....

Not the best photo comparison, but here's Bolte's Kimmons and Tom Kirkham Jr.'s bare naked lady (with the KISS attendees).
