Re: Why it cannot be taken literally.
what you are proposing is that this mustang was hand built, brand new, to look exactly like a factory 67 chevelle, including 27 years of wear and tear, with bolts hand-tightened to factory specs, and a thick layer of greese to add to authenticity.
​
In the universe, what is the 27 years of wear and tear or the thick layer of grease equivalent to?
​
If it's light speed and star distances...well, I know I'm tired of that subject, too . Are there other lines of evidence?

Hoo Boy!
Crashfrog,
​
Well, you haven't changed my mind, of course, about Arachnaphilia's qualifications for universe building, but you have succeeded in making me regret that I ever mentioned my opinions on the matter.
