I was leaving Lowes and a older guy comes up to ask me about the car. I tell him it's a replica of a 1965 Shelby Cobra, he said he didn't know what that was. He says so it has a Chevy engine? I say no and say have you ever heard of Carroll Shelby to which he says no. So I explain the whole Carroll imports AC cars, stuffs a V8 in and beats Ferrari story. I told him to search the internet about it as there is some great history.
I was a bit shocked he had never heard of a Shelby Cobra or Carroll Shelby!

Yup.. so so many people just never tuned into some parts of history. ---------------
My last interaction was the standard question; "Is it a real one"? I said yes.. and with my sh^t grin also responded with; "I am a Millionaire".. ; at that point I explained what a replica is.

I know it's hard to believe that there are people out there that just aren't into cars. I have talked to people who look at cars as just a form of getting around and don't care what they drive.
That is NOT ME! I am passionate about my cars and I am sure most here are as well.
