My guess is that this "competition" "completion"??? "CSX3000" series car will get a lot of push back from SAAC and the article may have spoken out of school or have relied on incorrect info.

Who came up with the moniker "Continuation"? Wasn't it Shelby?
Ultimately, SAAC catalogs what Shelby (and Kirkham) produces. I'm sure, these "Resurrection" Cobras will have a separate chapter in the next World Registry with their CSX3000 designation.
For the record, being a SAAC member, I also disagree with the designation of CSX3000 for these new CSX3000's. In my mind, my position stands: it's a replica being built by Shelby. It's not the same company, not the same employees, not the same era and not the same materials.
