Yeah, I know, where do you start with this one?  Just when you think you've seen it all.  This has got to be a joke, right?

Humor is very subjective. If it was possible that it was a real Shelby Cobra I'd be more upset.

As it is, it's just a poor attempt at humor.

If Kopec had gotten a hold of that first, that might be another story? That could have been the lost Bemis Cobra and people running out across the country looking for that junk yard?

Well, I got a responsive from the 'seller'.  I asked him what CSX VIN number was it.

"CSX2000. If you know your history, you will know it is worth much more than I am asking. Gotta go, I have a tooth ache."

Obviously he knows I'm a dentist, and I think he just wanted to have a good laugh, and after all this Covid crap, I certainly welcome it.  Happy New Year everyone!
