Come on now - you know as well as I Shelby could have cared less about building street cars. Homologation was an evil of racing FIA GT. He hated it as much as every other GT manufacturer and they all tried to skirt it. They would much rather have been allowed to treat construction like the prototypes. The car did not matter. Remington thought they were piles of **** - Crappy steering, crappy geometry, crappy chassis. IMO Shelby would have tried a wheel barrow if he could have gotten someone to give him one. They were racers at the right place and time with amazing will and considerable luck.
Observer => "Is it a real one?"
Owner => "Real what?"
C7 != C2
They are both recognized as Vettes.
I can not wait to get my non-Shelby Cobra Replica POS running. Thank God it is not remotely close mechanically to a 64 Cobra - it is destined for the track and its performance will do the talking one way or the other and guys that build track stuff will enjoy it and I seriously doubt there will be one that does not recognize it as a Cobra
