Now back to 2009. You have said that:
1. 2009 doesn't exist any more,
2. 2009 is a fantasy recreation backed up by a piece of paper,
2. 2009 is not an original real Cobra and
3. your ERA is just as original as 2009.
So I will continue to dispute your opinion(s) on 2009 based upon the fact that 2009 is listed in the Shelby American World Registry, the Shelby marque's "source document." 2009 has a huge write-up in the Registry, its history recorded in detail by SAAC. Thus, the marque's experts recognize 2009 as a real 1960's 289 Cobra, which seems to have a value of approx. $1MM +/-.
As I said earlier, there are many old race cars of a variety of marques all over the world that have been rebuilt and continue to be real and original.

Actually, I did not say #3 above: My "ERA is just as original as 2009".
I said my ERA is just as "real" as CSX2009, meaning they are both replicas.
Only in Shelby-world would CSX2009 as it exists today be considered an "original real Cobra".
That is great news for Erik. For his sake, I hope he cashes in before Shelby-world realizes its folly.
