I'm all for getting this back on topic, as I said before I agree they got the Continuation Cobra pretty much wrong ...

Yep, they botched that one up -
Falacy: The first reproduction of the Shelby Cobra, CSX 4000 gave birth to the kit-car legions of Cobras all over the U.S.


Fact: According to Hemmings there were only 998 original Cobras built - 655 of the 289 models, and 343 427s - all starting with this one here. Since then the trade in Faux-bras has been such a lucrative draw that even Carroll Shelby himself got in on the act, producing a series of 'continuation cars.' Why? Because money, that's why.

Falacy quoted right out of the opening post link.
